Has anyone fitted the electro-hydraulic type brake booster to an RST? The idea has always intrigued me, because it would make left foot braking easier. In other words, the amount of brake boosting wouldn't depend on manifold pressure.

that will be good to see

That would be nice, especially as it's a LHD unlike the uk cars.

Jesse - u must already have a decent pedal being LHD

I think you missed the point, if you were serious. Yes, I did notice the smiley. The problem with standard RST setup is that when you are pressing throttle (+1bar in manifold) you get no servo assistance at all and you must press brake like hell for any effect. Then, when you back the throttle a bit, the servo kicks in and the car brakes like hell suddenly.
I'd like the car to brake the same, whatever the manifold pressure was. Cossie "servo" can be one solution as it doesn't rely on vacuum to boost the brakes, but stored overpressure that a small electric pump creates.
Alternatively one could install a separate vacuum pump and keep the std. servo.

hi hi hi. sorry but i have been a litle late on this

must i upload pic in photobucket or somethin to get i her?

he have used the brekservo and the loom and the brain to the servo..it is working for it self. he have not put all the sensors on yet. so it is only + 12v to it, and he have the 2wd pedalbox
