I still dont believe reseting the comp does anything as the comp is consistantly getting info from the sensors and learning!

I've been told the mesh is there,,,,not only to stop any crap getting through (stuff if I can work out how any crap could get through anyway) but also to make the air-flow swirl....I've also cleaned my Meter with carby cleaner,,,,worked a dream....

INASNT,,,I'm with you,,,,After my better 1/2 has ***** footed the car for a day,,,resetting it and then driving it seems to make no difference.....Maybe it does,,,, but such a small increase in power is not really noticable.

took apart the airbox and afm today, only to find that i couldn't find the bloody carby cleaner in the garage!!! gotta go buy a can from super cheaps. wacked a pod filter back on instead of the air box. its a cheapo one, i fink theres a huge difference between brand ones and the cheap ones. my k&n use to give a huge induction noise. can't hear crap from this cheapy one.

between the big names, there not much difference in performance, compared to the no names there is. sorry, its a bit off topic.

it might make sum difference on a r32 comp as it can be remapped,but it on a r33 i doubt it does anything!

When i get my fmic on and s-afc retuned i am gonna reset the comp and see for myself if it does anything at all on the dyno.

And whats with that dyno graph in the first link? its all over the show!

also, i reset the ecu lastnite, went for a long cruise.  i don't think it does anything either.  or perhaps my car is running ok so i don't notice any difference.

flat head screw driver and rip it off!

as i said reseting dont do anything on r33 comps. they r eprom chips, they have set maps that alter slightly if knock is detected etc.

it might work!!! :(

well lets just say that if u use brake fluid to clean your AFM u might as well drink sum while u r at it, so then your car could be at the mechanics getting fixed while u r in hospital recovering from poisioning!:lol:
