Home made "hydraboost" Have you seen this?

[69boo307]

I really like the mod he did on the stock PS pump, I'd like to do that to mine!
I don't have anything to contribute regarding home-made hydraboost, but I'm running one of Paul's units, and it's badass!
This past sunday at the drag strip, I decided to see if I could stop for the first turn out (which requires some HARD braking at this strip).
Well, I didn't make it and had to go to the second turn-out. Not because I didn't have enough braking power, but because when I put my foot into the brakes, I got lifted out of the seat and about hit my head on the windshield, and had to let off before I lost control of the car! Time to upgrade those old stock seatbelts...

Thank you Paul for taking part of this topic and shareing your opinion without the common "dont talk about this because we supporting vendor" whine,as seen in another forums.You pointed really good matters to think before trying to build it from e.g. mustang parts. I gave eye on some units on ebay and they were not so cheap after all considering all the work ahead before it sits on my firewall. I will send you PM about ordering one.

Troy - you really need to invest in some serious race harnesses for your ride if you're going to attempt these levels of mega G force decel maneuvers! Didn't you also just about "soil yourself" when you nailed the brakes last year at about a 150 mph?

Bowtie - if / when you want to get in touch with me, the best way is to either e-mail directly or call...

That Ford set up looks better than the GM unit, but like Paul pointed out it comes with less power, so that's no good...

I took my Hydroboost out of a 1996? GMC Suburban. Like TT says, it uses correct bolt pattern for our cars and works with the OEM and aftermarket MC's. I had to route all my own lines and do the fittings. Overall it was an easy modification to do, but on my current project I'm just gonna call Paul @ HB.com and order a kit when the time is right...
