EBPV turned into a exhaust brake

[binder man]

Hello, can I use a on-off type switch or do I need a on-off-on type? Also any special things for a early 99 6 spd?

Take a look here: EBPV_Brake

I would change the on/off switch in the instructions with a range selector on the shifter and I would not hook it up to the brake pedal, if it were me. That way you have the on/off switch right at your hand like this one: NAPAonline Catalog Viewer

the instructions are for a 3 way switch on there too...so would I just hook up my power wire and then the other goes in between the powertrain and ebpv?

Yes, that is how I wired mine up. Except I used a horn button on the floor for my left foot to push when needed.

Okay so I might be over thinking this a bit but If I get this switch 12VoltGuy.com: Blue LED Toggle Switch with Cover

do I need to get the rector diodes too? or what? sorry I'm not very good at wiring.

Just a question? How much braking do you gain by bypassing the EBVP sensor and manually engaging valve?? EGT temps on a motor at operating temps. go up when this is done, is that correct???
