Looks like that involves tuning, AFM can be tuned out, no reason to bolt on the electric motors to the simulators. Any one can just unbolt the afm motors, keep them plugged in and just hang them under the car securely. The engine still goes into AFM mode so no gain there. BTW, I already have a hooker mid pipe system that has a place to hang both electric AFM motors and there are no valves in the pipes. I will eventually install that and then have AFM tuned out. Thank you for your input and suggestion. Temporarily I am just trying to do a work around so the AFM doesnt activate, I have a very sensitive butt meter and ear, I hear and feel afm connect and disconnect. I can hear the exhaust note change and feel torque converter lock up or tighten. I do admit it is extremely hard to detect if you have the radio on and not really paying attention.

Read more info on this thread:
https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=585528 There are two versions of the A10. 10L80 and 10L90. Check your RPO codes to see which transmission you have. (MI2 for 10L80) ZL1 uses the 10L90 and that is the version that Range has listed as not supported. SS cars use the 10L80 which has different programming as well as some mechanical differences. The Range device works with the 10L80. I don't see how the AWE Valve Simulators can turn off AFM without a tune since AFM is controlled electronically within a module. Your cars - do as you want. |

I believe that you’re correct. I don’t think the plates on the exhaust will prevent the ECU from putting the engine in V4 mode. The plates allow you to install a non-AFM exhaust on a car with AFM without setting a CEL. A person could enable the V8/V4 display on the dash to monitor the engine mode and verify what the engine is doing.

However if I drive without my AFM disabler check engine light comes on after few miles because I am missing AFM exhaust valves. Last edited by ste1n; 12-13-2020 at 06:03 PM. |
