You should reset your ECU.
To do this disconnect the negative cable on the battery for about 5mins and then start the car and let it idle for about 5mins.
Someone correct me if i'm wrong.

Just pull the fuse for 10 secs. I must say, I have never seen proof that resetting the ECU does anything. Back to back dyno runs would be nice, but I think I know what the result would be.
