Exhaust brake on 7.3

Im still trying to figure out all the mods the PO's had made to our Ex. Checking the oil today, the exhaust brake caught my eye. It's the BD exhaust brake kit.

I haven't read much good stuff about exhaust brakes on the 7.3, so I haven't used it, other than trying it once.

What peaked my interest was seeing a 100psi compressor used in the brake system, and it got me wondering how I could use that little compressor in more useful ways!

Anyone have any thoughts on disconnecting the brake and using the compressor?

If so, how do you make it work?

See pics.
