(brakes) -u-f-o-?

This came on my sev. Does anyone know what it is?

It hooks up between front brakes & master cyl, im guessing it might be a brake byass valve but it has wires coming out it so maybe a locker or something?

Hell yeah,it's probably a "line lock" kind of deal for launches.You should be able to only use the fronts for drag launches with it,also Big-*** smoke shows. Maybe a proportioning thing/bias...does it have a control box or switch for it somewhere,track the wires for it.
