Product Description
Exhaust brakes help slow down your vehicle by increasing the retarding horsepower available from your engine. Exhaust brakes are highly recommended for use when towing heavy loads and for long hill descents.
This exhaust brake kit is specifically designed for your 2011-2016 Ford Powerstroke truck. It comes with the necessary pipe adapters, brackets and wiring to make installation easier.
The BD Ford 6.7 exhaust brake kit utilizes one of the stock up-fitter (auxiliary) switches on the dashboard for a clean installation. It also features different brake controller modes that can help warm up the engine faster and change the activation method of the brake to suit driver preferences.
This manual is divided into different areas to assist you with the installation and operation of your braking unit. We strongly suggest that you write down the kit and serial numbers of your unit in the spaces provided and retain this manual for future reference.
Vehicle Requirements
This exhaust brake is only intended for vehicles without exhaust after treatment, particulate filter systems or EGR. If the vehicle is still stock we would instead recommend a BD VVB (variable vane turbo exhaust brake) that makes use of the factory VGT turbocharger to help decelerate the vehicle.
