Is there a gm vats delete (1986-2005) shop in Salt Lake City I should use instead?
Most Salt Lake City shops don't keep the bench equipment for gm vats delete (1986-2005) — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-country northwest — about 2-3 days each way.
Does Utah vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Utah requires emissions testing in its most populous Wasatch Front counties; the rest of the state is exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Utah and federal requirements.
Do I need to send the key?
No. After VATS delete, any physical key that mechanically turns the ignition will start the car. Existing keys still work; the ECM just stops checking the resistor value.
Can I reverse this if I sell the car?
Yes — we archive the original ECM data for 90 days. Within that window, restore is $75. After 90 days, restoration is best-effort.
