Default Blu fin question

Hey lads,
i have an FRST MK1 with a full mongoose system and blu fin. I am aiming to go back to a standard exhaust as soon as i can. my question is, will i have to re-program the blu fin super chip and if so how do i go about doing so. Will i have to disconnect the battery, remove the chip and leave the ecu reset and then plug back in the super chip or will it work fine with the standard exhaust without removing it??

Any advice is appreciated!

thanks.

as far as im aware, disconnect the battery while you change the exhaust (or 30 mins minimum) and then start it backup, bluefin should re-learn everything with the standard zaust back on...

Yes, disconnect, have a cup of tea then reconnect.

Used to take a couple of days of mixed driving for my ST's ecu to re-learn all it's values.
