[2snakes]

I want to buy the bypass for my 08 has anyone had any problem ?? I dont want any check engine lights.. Where is the best place to buy ??

I'm installing the bypass this weekend. It's the same plug set that is used on the Vette (for the T56), so you can buy anywhere.

I've heard to stay away from the cheap ebay units. I bought mine (Gen 2) from Parts Rack and had no problems.

Why not just save yourself the trouble and leave the car in first until the skip shift light goes out?

That might not always be practical in traffic and parking lots.

How did the install go?
I ordered the "skip shift" adapter for my 08, it should arrive in a few days. I'm hoping it comes with installation instructions!

I've never had a problem with leaving the car in first a little longer until the RPMs are high enough to turn off the skip shift. You don't have to be really revving the motor or nailing the go-pedal to get the skip shift off.

Note that I mean this as a serious comment, not a flame or sarcastic comment. I'm just thinking you could save a little money and trouble by just leaving it in first a bit longer.
