There are no performance differences in Titan or Kodiak in fact all the parts are interchangeable. Both use an off the shelf GM pad.
There is a huge difference in actuators.
1. Titan is faster .3 sec vs. 1.0-1.1 sec to activate for Carlisle & Dexter. Titan uses a 5 piston pump that generates 70 cu. in. per minute vs Carlisle & Dexter 3 piston pump generating 38-42 cu. in. per minute.
2. Titan uses a much larger reservoir resulting in much cooler operation. Carlisle in fact states in the operation manual to put the vehicle in park when extended stopping is necessary, like a railroad crossing. This is not necessary with Titan.
