reset ecu

i read that reseting your ecu is taking off the nagative wire off the battery and pumping the barke a couple of times i had a cel when i put in my bov would i be able to make it atospehirc and reset the ecuu and no cel problem ??

Im not sure what your asking since your writing is not very clear. You can reset a CEL, but it will come back if there is a problem. You should not vent to the atmosphere on cars that have a Mass airflow sensor. However, you shouldn't throw a cel even if you are VTA. If you throw a CEL you should get it read and address the problem.
 
well i did get it read and the guy said i was runing to lean and then i recurcualted it and the cel went away but my friend with a hks ssqv has it atmosferic aqbnd no check engine lighht s go off
 
so is the bov in between the maf and throttle body?? or is it before the throttle body....
 
VTA is NOT a good idea on our cars. They will backfire like mad between shifts and just run like crap overall. I know people get a hard-on for the sound, but really guys?! Do you need to be that Rice?
 
disconnecting the battery and pumping brakes ( so the lights come on) is to drain the power and it resets the ecu. If you got a cel after you reset and it went away, then you should keep it recirc untill you can get it tuned so you can run vta

Get it tuned just so you can run VTA? What's the point -- the freakin sound? I'm with Bravnik on this one.
