Is it necessary/recommend to reset the ECU (unplug the '-' (negative) battery cable for a few minutes) after installing an exhaust?

I know it is recommended for an intake.

Just want to make sure - although I doubt it would hurt.

regardless i would do it, and let my ecu remap all the curves with the exhaust.

except for a 2k3 unplugging the - terminal won't reprogram the ecu.

Resetting the ECU only clears stored error codes, it does not erase or reset stored operating parameters.

The ECU will immediately learn and adjust for any performance mods you install by looking at MAF (air flow) readings and O2 sensors.

how would you reset your ecu without disconnecting your battery. doing it from the inside of the car.
