Remote Brake Booster
Turbo Mini Forums

Looking at improving my pedal..

The booster is to big and in the way.

any pictures with mounting one maybe under the dash?

I did consider a Kad set up as well? how hard is the pedal for the missus to have a drive?

What is this booster thing you speak of? If you need to improve your pedal, some billet covers would probably look good.

But in all seriousness, I guess you are looking for the same retardation with a lower pedal effort?

Australian for servo no doubt.

minispares do a single line servo kit which could be remote mounted - I know someone who had one mounted under the dash. I suppose then that something similar could be done for the twin line brakes.

The only in-line servos (booster) I've seen have been for a single line because they are after the master cylinder, not pushing on it.

That's not to say I've seen everything though...

I may be wrong but I thought in Aus you have some pretty strict rules about what you can and cannot do to safety critical items (like brakes), much more restrictive rules than what we can legally do over here.

Otherwise I would say just put the servo on the front line and change the rear cylinder diameter to compensate.

Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ???

just fit some good size rotors and be done with it the bit of effort it takes to push the brakes is worth its weight to get the feel

if it takes effort to press the peddle your less likely to over brake or apply them un constantly to me the vented 8.4s and 1144s are grate i think we are "soft" now days with really good power steering and power brakes the OE spend a megga to prefect this feel there is no way we can add some aftermarket device to feel like that

I wouldn't disagree with not putting a servo on, they are another thing to go wrong - but do help. Put some 4 pots on there if you haven't already. That alone will help.
