Default CAGS disable

Hey guys, I just put up a why, what and how-to regarding CAGS, with a lot of help from CF member Bugman. If you want to know anything about CAGS, check this out.

Also, if you'd like to submit a how-to DIY, please let me know. Thanks and enjoy!

Although a nice article and well written, it just seems a little unnecessary. A 30 cent blown smart fuse will defeat CAGS and it doesn't require you getting under your car.

There's a ton of ways to get around "cags".

-1.5ohm resistor from radio shack
-CAGS plug in kit if you don't want to fool with the resistor mod (I have like 20 of these if anyone wants to buy one)
-Tuning

Maybe the best way is to just drive it a bit more aggressively. In all the years I've had my 2006 I think I've triggered CAGS maybe four or five times.

Definitely agree with the both of you but I've found CAGS to be one of the most annoying features on all the LSX powered vehicles I've ever owned. It's literally one of the FIRST things to go. Maybe I'm just an old fart now.
