Removing ASR
Removing ASR Iam thinking about removing my asr on my 97 Z28. I hate the way the solinoid is rite over the vavle cover and its just a pain in the ***. What is the correct way of removing it. Can i just remove the solenoid and wiring? Anything have to be done with the pcm?

I don't think it's in the PCM, so there shouldn't be anything there. Kinda like the ABS unit. It's a separate entity that controls it's own system. I don't have ASR on my 93, so I can't really help much. SLP does make that on-start OFF switch you could get, and maybe just relocate the system somewhere else under the hood.
On that note: Question? Does ASR kick in the rear ABS, or does it adjust throttle/fuel during spin?

I kno about the slp switch but i want to delete the **** above the valve cover and cables and whatnot. Im gonna be putting a 3ch rear in the car now i know i can still use the asr but i dont want it. Has anyone removed it from the car? The new valve covers i got wont fit under the bracket. I hate asr. Asr =

Well I'm googling to try and help you. Maybe this first one will help with removal even if it is to just have it Off on start:

Also, this has a theory on removal too:

"Hi. the ASR is a relatively complex circuit. You can't add a resistor or unplug something and be rid of it without throwing codes.
SLP makes a module to reverse the function of the ASR dash switch for the latest models. It's nearly $70 though. I cannot recall if the ASR is something that can be deleted or altered by programming the PCM but I'm thinking that it can - by what sparks my memory. I have intentions of splurging and ordering up the SLP unit for my 01 if my ship comes in."
This one looks like what you want!

Simple enough as just getting a non ASR throttle cable and bypassing the unit, along with that resistor to keep the ASR, Air Bag or ABS light coming on. Also no not reprogramming needed as I suspected.
Hope that helps.

I'm also looking to delete the ASR but retain the ABS. I am swithing from a 12-bolt to Moser's new 9" fabricated housing which evidently has 3-channel ABS capabilities...correct me if I'm wrong here. What is involved in keeping the ABS functional??? Is it feasible to "convert" the 4-channel to a 3-channel???

Another Q: Is 3 Channel Front L and R and then Rear, and 4 Channel F-L, F-R, R-L and R-R? Working them independently? Rather than 3 Channel working fronts as needed and rear both get worked at the same time?
If so, couldn't you be able to take the 'data' wire from the rear 2 and combine them and run a common ground?
I'm just rambling off idiotic theories that are most likely impossible, but I figured an idea is an idea.
