Is there a gm afm / dod / dfm disable programming shop in Charlotte I should use instead?

Does North Carolina vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
North Carolina requires an annual safety inspection statewide, with OBD-II emissions testing in a set of more populous counties. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all North Carolina and federal requirements.
Can this be done on the bench?
Yes. We program supported GM ECMs on the bench using a proper bench harness and a stable, regulated power supply, then test communication before the module ships back.
Do I need to remove the engine heads?
Not for a software disable only. Removing the heads is normally part of a mechanical AFM delete or a lifter replacement job, not the programming step.
