On Edit: There's also a big warning on the Banks Speed Brake brake to NOT use it on the high strength setting with little or no load. It will nearly lock the tires up.

So then it is a turbo assisted braking deal and not variable valve timing then? Hmm, I learned something new today...it was a good day!

Jeff, 21' Bass boat, tandem axle fully loaded and a smaller toy hauler when hauling the dirt bikes and camping for the weekend. One of these days I need to get both weighed so I know exactly how much I'm towing.

We are putting the finishing touches on one now, and it's going to be realesed at almost the same time as the 6.4L

The function on both will be exactly the same. No welding, no wire splicing, no cutting. Just plug and play.

The brake is independant of the ECM so it will work with any programmer out there. It may NOT work if you have something plugged into the OBDII port like and edge insight however.

The system will come with our display so you can use it instead. The two won't work at the same time though. So it's 1 or the other.

powerstrokin03 · 07-16-2009, 02:30 AM

i like yalls stuff, but i love my edge mount with the insight and wont replace it
