Pull the hazard fuse for 10 sec and then plug it in and restart the car. If the check engine light goes away you're fine.

I never reset my ECU after installing my intake, didn't have a problem. Even after installing headers and exhaust... I'd say it's probably something else (maybe you bumped something while you were installing it, or maybe it's completely unrelated).

just look at the ecu and find out how many blinks its throwing off, then we can tell ya exactly.

the ecu for your car is located underneath the footwell and carpet of the passanger side.
