That's  what I'm thinking now too.     Probably a switch on the throttle, to arm it... and another one on the floor to  actually   energize the  brake... and  probably a  3rd for a master on-off.  

Awaiting a  reply  from  Jacobs Systems  to see if they have any data on  the amount of  drag  their  systems  produce..      and at what  rpms. 

I'm a little concerned about   when I'm  chugging down a hill,  and  the   high pressure  exhaust is  carrying out  a bunch of hot carbon...
