Booster or no booster?
 
Just finishing up a Wilwood 14" front and back kit and also a Wilwood brake master cylinder, question is should I be looking a getting a booster also or not really needed with a big brake kit? I see alot of cars with just the master cylinder so is it for a cleaner look on the fire wall over function?

If it were me, I'd go booster.

Ok well not to sound too prissy but any cool looking boosters that I might want to look at? I would like function and looks if possible:D

CLASSIC PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS HAVE NICE STUFF. I HAVE ALL THEIR FRONT STEERING PRODUCTS AND THE QUALITY IS GREAT!:D

I drove the car a short distance without a booster and it didn't seem that bad but I went ahead and bought a small 8" gold booster from Matt's Classic becuase we had to pick up a few other parts, $100 I figured I'd have it to try and if it makes a big difference I will find a nice one, maybe go hydro boost. Well see.....

Do you have enough vaccum for a booster? What bore master are you running?

Nick.V70 06-06-2011 11:06 PM

I am still rocking a wicked super duper 307 2 barrel so I have vacume right now. But once I put a BBC I have sitting here on the stand (need to buy a tranny still) I should have vacume but not sure till I get that far. Still thinking about a LS swap so I am thinking of just doing a hydro boost and being done with it. I am playing with stuff above my head so I am still trying to learn the happy middle vs what I am planning to use as a complete reflecting package.

I have to re-check the bore size. I'll check the box tomorrow when I am back at work.

I would go with a hydraboost from Hydratech. Those aftermarket boosters have alot to be desired even with a stock cam.

You definitely need to step back and figure out all the details before you just throw on any old booster.
