That is a great time! Hopefully we can get ours to run that! I dont have anything Cruiser-wise to back this up on, but reseting the computer has alot to do with additional performance. The factory ECU will set its a/f, timing, etc maps off of the air ratio incoming to the car (taking in 0-100% throttle). When this factor is adjusted, such as intakes, BOOST, etc, it throws off the "determined" maps. The car does not automatically adjust, but has to learn the new air flow ratio. Then it can re-draw new maps. Of course I dont have anything solid to back this up with, but the addition of power-adders and resetting the ECU was a major part tuning our Accords.
