Sure, but it will cost you some serious money. You would need to purchase:
  • 4 shocks
  • 1 computer
  • 4 sensors
  • 4 connectors to hook the sensors to the suspension
  • some assorted parts and doodads.
  • wiring harness that you would probably have to jury-rig into the system since your car will NOT have the wiring already there.
Then you get to install it AND find someone with a Tech2 system who can (and will) re-option the car to be a mag-ride car since several of the car's systems need to know about it.

Not worth it, in my opinion. And probably easier to just trade your car in for one with the system already there.

Follow-up Q:
Does the Driver Mode Control on the C7's (2014 and 2015) include Mag Select ride Control, or is it an extra cost option?

Mag Ride is OPTIONAL on C7 Z51 ONLY. Not available on non-Z51 cars.

What he's saying is, the best way to do it is:

1. Jack up the license plate.
2. Install a car that came with MSRC.



I'd consider doing the mod on mine, if it was practical. But it's not.
