I have one and it works great! I have it set to go off throttle input and it works great no hesitation. The only issue with it is that it use your brake light switch as a on off switch and if your brakes are spongy at all and don't return instantly it will have a delay that is hard to manage especially if your bracket racing. If that had been an issue with mine I was going to use a deadman switch instead of the brake lights.

If I were to install one, id mount a button on my steering wheel. I feel like I would cut some pretty quick Reaction times.

My original plan was to run line lock front and back and use the momentary/deadman switch from that as a reference for my limiter but I was really happy with how little delay there was with just the brakes.

I'm having a issue with leaving the line with constant boost. Was hoping this would eliminate me try to watch the boost gauge and tree at the same time.

My truck it's hard when the turbo starts getting warm rpms start to climb a bit and it's hard to be predictable. Plus I floor it and dump it at once so who knows how high the rpms go before I got all the way off the clutch.

So what's the word on a suncoast trans brake? I'd imagine the trans brake and the bd unit would work well like a 2step and a trans brake on a gasser
