Description:
Banks Brake is tops in safety, because it produces higher, more sustained braking power than other exhaust brakes. Only Banks Brake contains electronic features that improve operation and drivability. Its computerized brake control (CBC) module automatically senses throttle position, controls brake engagement and cuts out annoying brake noises. The fast warm-up function prolongs brake durability. Automated brake disengagement at low speed smoothes stop-and-go driving. The pressure actuator is coated with a high-tech material to withstand the harshest environment. Built for years of trouble-free service, Banks Brake never needs adjustment.
Includes: Brake housing assembly; Pressure actuator; Computerized Brake Controller (CBC); Large butterfly valve with super-alloy shaft-and-bearing system; Fully assembled air compressor panel; Stainless, 4" turbine outlet pipe (stock exhaust); Quick-connect pneumatic hose; Wire harness; Mounting hardware.
Please note: Automatic transmissions require the SmartLock trans brake.

Banks is one of the premier names in turbocharged diesel modification, but there is a lot more to the company than just that. Banks engines have been used everyone from NAVY Seals to winners at the Bonneville salt-flats.
Banks' name precedes him and it is no coincidence that he teaches to graduate students of the General Motors Institute. Banks' engineering spirit has allowed him to innovate great things, such as the twin-turbo small block Chevy in the late 1970's.

Q: What does an ehaust system do? Why buy an exhaust system?
A: A performance exhaust system is used to increase horsepower for your car by allowing exhaust gases to pass through your exhaust system with less backpressure and less resistance. Larger-diameter piping is normally used, depending on the application, in order to gain more horsepower and torque levels throughout the power band. A performance exhaust system can be the most cost-effective modification you can do to get more horsepower out of your car, not to mention that it will give your car a deeper more aggressive sound. And depending on the brand, performance exhaust systems normally include gorgeous new mufflers that add a great appearance to your car.
Q: What exactly does "cat-back" mean when people say "cat-back exhaust"?
A: Many performance exhaust systems are also referred to as cat-back exhausts. Cat-back means that the exhaust piping starts from your catalytic converter and runs back all the way to the exhaust tip(s).
Q: Does a cat-back exhaust come with a catalytic converter?
A: No, "cat-back" actually means from the rear of the catalytic converter back, so it will include everything after the converter, but not the converter itself.
Q: How do you install an exhaust system?
A: Exhaust systems are installed using the supplied hardware, which includes gaskets and high grade bolts. This is truly a bolt-on procedure and most exhaust systems are an exact fit with no modifications needed. For this reason, getting a performance exhaust system is normally considered one of the easiest ways to gain noticeable horsepower for your car.
