Default Shocking!

Everything I’ve read says my I cannot use simulators to trick the computer if I change from the magnetic ride shocks on my ‘04 (which I desperately need to do). aFe Power claims their Shock Delete Module GM part number 436-401001-N will work. Does anyone have any experience with these before I pony up $300+? Thanks

Surely one of the independent repair shops in your area would have a Tech 2 and could do the reprogramming for you. If you have a Corvette Club in your area, inquire with them who they would recommend.
