Been on the phone with Banks, they are coming out with an exhaust brake using the variable vane Garrett, any thoughts on this?

I believe Ford uses the VVT for an exhaust brake on the F450 & F550, why can't we?

I wonder if it would work on the pickups.

Would be a pretty handy feature if it worked right.
