does the original reservoir only interfere with the TPS on an M50/S50? Would the top mounted S52 fit fine?

No announcement yet.
M50 swap that will blow your mind.

Some updates
The smaller reservoir that you can buy will fit in the master cylinder with the smaller grommets but the clutch master cylinder hose would have to be extended and the e9x reservoir can fit with some “massaging” with the m52/s52
Here’s some pics.

No but when you have a brake leak it will just run out of brake fluid faster lol

Yes. The stock e30 one works.

Functionality update
Took it for a short drive (no exhaust yet after headers). Stomped on my brakes a few times in isolated safe areas. This booster upgrade is the shit. Feels like a newer car. Yet I'm sure my old e30 booster has definitely seen better days. Thanks for the photo cred brotha and being adventurous enough to find this booster option!

If you have a large piston volume in your BBK, and top off the reservoir when you have new pads, then you might drain the reservoir as your pads wear thin. If you're in this situation and top up the reservoir along the way, you'll overflow it when you push the pistons back to install new pads.
