I recently purchased a SCT programmer and cold air intake. I installed the cold air kit and then did the "tune" and everything is great. While installing some car audio gear, the battery was removed from the vehicle for approximately 1 hour. My question is, with the battery removed for that length of time, does the tuned stay stored in the vehicle's computer or do I need to re-download the performance tune to the vehicle?Thanks for all reads and replies!!

Joe

The tune stays stored in the computer. No need to reload it after disconnecting the battery. The car will have to relearn the idle parameters though, so start it and let it idle for about 5 minutes without touching any pedals. Good to go.
