If you've corrected any condition which would set the CEL, then resetting the ECU would be a good idea.
The test connectors and codes are the same for all OBDI Legacys. Did you try this?
Proper tuning optimises power and efficiency for any engine, if you have the means to adjust operating parameters. If you're running the stock ECU, the operating parameters are set and can't be adjusted.
