3rd gen exhaust brake on 2nd gen S300
How bad did HTT nail you for the custom turbo?
You would need to unbolt the exhaust housing & swap it out for a 3rd gen housing. I have a connection who can hook you up with the housings, I'm not sure of cost, but I think he sells the housings for $300+/- the cost of your housing. You will also need a 3rd gen downpipe flange [about $30] which you will need to weld on to your 4" downpipe. If you could find a fellow member with a 3rd gen stock downpipe who is willing to make a donation & cut the flange off, that is what I did. I bought 4 3rd gen exhaust brakes for 04.5 trucks off of ebay in the past for $300 brand new. You would also need a vacuum solenoid, arming switch of your choice & a throttle pedal switch. You could call Advanced Diesel Technology & Doug could get you these parts for around $200. I had $480 in my exhaust brake complete.

Attachment 20037 See the horseshoe clip that is on the pivot ball.
Attachment 20038 Here are the 2 bolts which allow you to turn the actuator 180* & reinstall.
Attachment 20039 Zoom in on this one, shows the clip.

Isn't it just my luck that since you started this thread I haven't seen one go for cheaper than 600 bucks or so.
Something I forgot to ask. Why'd you go with this set-up rather than just some aftermarket system?

I got it cheap. A complete e-brake kit costs $1000+. I have $485 in a complete kit, everything is brand new. Another reason is that I am a sucker for challenges, I read too many posts where guys said that it couldn't be done. I deserve a "Atta boy!".
