FAQ

What does an exhaust brake do for towing?

An exhaust brake increases engine back-pressure to create retarding force, helping control downhill speed with less service brake input—especially useful for heavy trailers and long descents.

Is this a turbo-mount exhaust brake?

No. This is a remote-mount brake designed to install inline in the exhaust system.

Does this work with a 4-inch exhaust system?

Yes. This brake is designed for 4-inch exhaust applications and should be installed where a 4-inch section is present at the mounting location.
