On the other hand ... it won't hurt anything if you do a reset. Might take a few minutes more to relearn settings but no big deal.

Personally, I wouldn't do a reset unless I suspected some kind of ECM-related problem. If you are only changing the intake piping, the stored settings should be closer to correct than default values. YMMV
