Default Active Exhaust valve

Hi Guys,
I have a 2010 Street Bob that is a European model and is fitted with S&S slip ons. It still retains the valve that is fitted to one of the downpipes and is controlled by the ECU.

I hate the bloody thing and have heard you can buy a box of tricks that simply plugs in to your ECU and this the holds the valve open at all times and also cons the ECU into thinking all is well so not bringing on Engine management light etc.
Could someone confirm this is correct and let me know where I can purchase one from. ( I am UK based)

Cheers.
