Delete Of AFM Valves After Tune Q?

[Hary Gahtoe]

I'm in the middle installing a full Stainless Works exhaust on 19 Camaro SS that comes without the mid AFM valves.
I have used the Diablosport I3 Platinum to program disable of AFM.

My question is;
Can I physically remove the GM exhaust AFM valve unit and plug the end of the electrical connector without getting a dash error code ?
Thanks for replies

that will likely lead to a code, not housed in the pcm, making it tough to disable. Might be some simulators out there that plug in to mimic the factory valves and avoid codes.

So it means; I still have to connect the factory valve units to prevent error codes even though there are no actuater valves in the pipes ?
I can do that, although it does seem counter productive.

Next question then;
If this is my only option where do I look for a plug-in simulator?

I'm open to any clues or followup.
Thanks

So the "muffler valve simulators" Will stop an error code.
Mikel reply;
"exactly"
