resetting the ecu can't hurt ... i read somewhere that after you add aftermarket parts you are supposed to reset the ecu.

I had the same problem.
I flared the ends.
How did you reset the ECU?

[gs-t spyder]

you will have to get the ends flared like said above then you will not have any problem with them coming off and yup that sucks because i had made the lower intercooler pipe and didnt have the end flaired and had the same problem and i know it sucks. good luck.

REsetting the ECU will more likley hurt than help, for a short time anyway. The ECU constantly adjusts. If your parts make any difference, it will compensate within 5 minutes of idling, and 10 minutes of steady cruise.

Flaring the ends is the best thing to do. I just use some vice grips or channel locks to bend the end out slightly. You can also spray some hair spray on the end before you slide the coupler on
