Product Description

The MBRP Electronic Valve Simulators (AD7042) are the perfect solution for 2020–2025 Chevrolet Corvette C8 owners installing an aftermarket exhaust that removes the factory NPP exhaust valves or AFM (Active Fuel Management) valves. These plug-and-play simulators connect directly to the factory wiring harness, preventing check engine lights, dashboard warning messages, and fault codes that can occur when the factory exhaust valves are no longer present.

Designed specifically for the C8 Corvette, the AD7042 kit allows you to enjoy the performance and sound of your aftermarket exhaust without upsetting the vehicle's electronics. Installation requires no cutting, splicing, or permanent modifications, making it a simple, fully reversible upgrade. Whether you're installing a valveless cat-back, race exhaust, or custom exhaust system, these simulators ensure your Corvette's ECU continues to operate as intended.
