Any need to reset ECU after mods?

I know with other cars people reset thier ECU's after performance mods to allow the ECU to "relearn" the proper fuel/timing curves. Does the FD have this or is it using fixed maps? Should I reset my ECU after installing bolt ons?

you should ALWAYS unplug the negative terminal cable when you work on the car for ANYTHING. This basically resets the ECU but in addition to taking off the negative, you can hold the brake pedal down for 30 seconds that will clear the ECU codes off.
