BD Diesel TapShifter with Variable Vane Exhaust Brake - 2003-2007 Ford 6.0L Power Stroke

This BD kit gives the 6.0L two upgrades in one. TapShifter adds button gear selection on a factory-style shift lever, and the Variable Vane Brake uses the factory VGT turbo to give you real engine braking.

Hold a gear on a long grade, keep the transmission from hunting with a trailer, or lock the converter on demand. The brake builds up to 70 psi of backpressure by closing the turbo vanes, with no exhaust cutting.

Why we like it

• Manual control of all five gears
• On-demand torque converter lockup
• Variable Vane exhaust brake - up to 70 psi backpressure (BD rating)
• Factory-style shift lever with button gear selection
• Plug-in factory connections
