Default bilstein shocks F 55 delete

I just had bilstein shocks installed on my 2004 c5.cannot find shock simulators that work. Car does not go over 80 mph. looking for someone /someplace in the northeast that can delete the F55 magna ride suspension.I've been told that would solve the problem.
thanks

I did this for another forum member in NJ. Even after doing the delete the "alarm" returned. He left the battery disconnected overnight and that did it....

I pulled sensors out of origonal shocks and plugged them back into harness on the car. Wrapped them up and shrink wrapped them weather tight then Zip tied them securely out of harms way. This has fooled the car for many years without programing anything.
