Bully Dog Exhaust Brake

Adding a Bully Dog exhaust brake to your diesel vehicle can be a great safety precaution, making the long downhill stretches less hazardous. The diesel engine is quite different than your typical gasoline engine in many respects. One marked difference is in that the diesel engine has no real engine braking when you release the throttle, as you would expect with the gasoline models. For this reason, the brakes on your diesel powered vehicle work much harder on the downhill slopes than those of a gasoline run vehicle. This substantially increases the risk of excessive heat in the brake system, which can easily result in dangerous brake fade. The Bully Dog exhaust brake is designed to address this problem, creating backpressure inside the engine to slow your vehicle safely, reducing the strain on your brake system significantly on those downhill slopes. An exhaust brake valve, located behind the turbo, is calibrated to open and close with the throttle, providing just the right amount of backpressure to slow your vehicle when necessary. When this valve is open, it produces no restriction on engine power, allowing your vehicle to operate as usual. The Bully Dog exhaust brake is a great way to add safety to driving and prolong the life of your brake system.
