I am not sure if it is gonna drive any different, it might. I think you should reset the ECU in my own opinion.

The significance is that the ECU can "readjust" to your new modifications. I was never too keen on doing this, so I never did, but you can if you want to.

It probably won't do anything with just an intake. But if you want to, just disconnect the battery terminal for a while and that's it.

How long to disconnect the battery cable? Or how long it will take to "learn" by not doing anything and just driving?

If you want to do the battery thing, just leave it disconnected for like 2 minutes. If you just keep driving it without doing anything, it's not going to learn anything. It'll just adapt to the changes in the intake air, if any. That's why resetting the ECU after an intake install probably won't do anything at all.

looks like more that just A quick question... looks more like two

disconnect the ecu... wait 5 min, then reconnect.
start up the car and idle for about 3-4 min.

the purpose of doing this is because your getting more air with the cold air intake so you need the computer to adjust the fuel.. etc etc. i guess you should just rest it for piece of mind.
