Default cags system

How many have bypassed the cags sytem on their M6 C-5's. Are you satisfied with the results?

Just did mine this past weekend and really like it. The dash light still lights up but you have full control over the gears.

I waited awhile to do this and just revved above 19mph. However, every so often I'd forget and it was really annoying. For $19 and about ten minutes, this is a total must do.

Put it in on day one. Don't mind the light still coming on as I'm usually looking at the road or the HUD.

Highly Recommended.

Just shop around when you buy one, I bought mine from RKSports a while back but didn't install it until recently. I paid way too much from what I know now.

Quite satisfied. It depends on whether you are bothered with the 1-4 forced shift... I thought I could live with just reving a little higher or pausing a little longer to engage the gear I wanted. That lasted about 3 months. I don't consider myself anywhere near the skill level of many on this Forum, but I was able to put the bypass on in 5 minutes. Spent an hour getting under the car but that's another story :D
