ix booster

11-11-2011, 02:18 PM

I know, yet another ix booster ? I have a 91 318is and doing s52 swap....going with the ix booster......has anyone swapped shafts out of the original 318is booster, to get the length right, into the ix booster? Eliminating the spacer so this seems like the shaft would now be the correct length.

The ix booster is plug and play. You only need to modify the shaft if you're using an e21 or 944 booster.

I thought with an iX booster you have to swap to a 735i MC and reservior? Not so plug and play...

The master cylinder itself is not plug and play. However the booster is.
