A set of solenoids that are activated by a switch inside the interior....... once activated, they apply the brakes to your front tires only so you can heat up the rear tires at the strip for additional traction.

Or, just lock the fronts and roast the rears for fun! Especially helpful on manual cars when you're trying to work the clutch, brake, and gas pedals all at the same time.

well a heads up if you havent read the article I was asking the same stuff, well pmp chimed in and they explained they were using granatelli solenoids in there kits and were having a lot of issues with them. They now are using different solenoids, and are retooling for the new kit. I hear nothing but good things about the pmp guys, so I would say go pmp. Heres the link

It won't effect the rear brakes at all... you splice into the brake line to the fronts only. I never did any tubing cutting/flaring/bending until I installed my LLs. They came out fine.

PMP all the way!

It's a true plug and play kit! Even the older kit with the Summit/GMS Solenoids was a direct bolt on. It was extremely simple to install and even easier to uninstall in case you need to return to stock!

I am waiting on their revised version to order them again!

Josh @ PMP will give you the best service you've ever had!
