Default Simulators

I'm looking for information on the simulators that are used when replacing F55 Magnetic shocks with aftermarket shocks. These simulators are supposed to prevent the MIL light (capping vehicle speed at 80 mph) and other computer messages from appearing on the dash. I have AC Delco shocks installed and also simulators. The Mil light doesn't come on but I am getting "Service Ride Control" message. I see the simulators advertised on "Ecklers", "Corvetteguys", "Corvettemods"' and "Mamotorworks" all at different prices. Are they all the same or are some better than others? I'm willing to buy new ones if they will perform better than the ones I have.

Besides never using Corvette Mods to buy anything, the other option is to get the Mag ride removed from the system with a TECH II or a GM Nano. Here is a few threads to help you.

Stay away from Corvette Mods. You'll be farther ahead if you have the F55 tuned out by someone with a Tech 2, if you are for sure ditching the F55. Best of luck.......
