"Buuster... I doon need no stiinkin' buuster"

My old porsche (por sha) has disk brakes, no booster. Your brake leg does get massively built and you'll look funny in shorts with your left tooth pick leg.

Also, walking a straight line becomes a bit harder but you concentrate and compensate by taking a longer stride with your tooth pick leg.

Cheers,

The kit comes with the built in proportioning valves but if you want to install another one inline, sure you could do that.

Can't wait to give you guys a call on this kit. Back in the day I was a skeptic now I see the brilliance in this and the time Dave has into this!

This is just a master cylinder that eliminates the booster, so I'm going to say yes.

what sucks is that i have a super stiff brake pedal, and i have acd and abs (because mr) ... I'm sick of the stiff pedal and i was thinking it was the brake booster but obviously its because my cams are too big and not creating enough vacuum. is that correct?

That could be it phrequenc or you may not have a good vacuum source going to the booster or the check valve is missing, broken or backwards.

Yes, we have the kits, we do have to put them together, ship time is less than a week.

So if weight reduction is not the reason for removing the brake booster, can we still keep the ABS with this kit or will the ABS have to be removed?

Anyone else run this manual brake / booster delete kit that can provide additional feedback ? How much “firmer” is the pedal with this kit ? I guess from a scale of “brake booster vacuum line popping off firm” really firm to “brake booster functioning correctly” easy , where does this fall ? Any other input ...?
