An after market exhaust brake attached to the exhaust is not recommended by Ford or Navistar. Using the EBVP to act as an exhaust brake, as far as I know, has not caused any damage. The butterfly still allows air to pass, and does not fully restrict the exhaust. I hahve been using it for a long time towing and non towing and the temp have been within spec.

Thanks for all the great info. I ordered the EBPV valve eliminator bolt-on and had one more question. If I use this will it throw off a code? If there is a code can you rig it up so it doesn't set off this code? Thanks

It closes for the duration of the braking operation.
