    Jason I ride the Mike's B M/C.

    This:



    but I don't know what's the diameter 5/8", 3/4" or 7/8"


    I hope that next week I receive the BBK from Lee to try another time this M/C

        agreed. if you go booster-less, you will need to change the pedal pickup point. ~4:1 is stock with the booster, ~6:1 manual brakes. i have a tilton pedal assembly that is 6.25:1 with dual masters. works very well. cheers, jason

            Raise the pick-up point for the rod to the booster/MC. Raise by the same distance the MC. About 1/3 the current distance. Also reinforce the stem.
            Brake harder. Go faster. No shit.

                Hi guys yes I now this is a old thread but I am wondering if anybody ended up finding a definitive vacuum booster option and master combo that clears the S50B32 euro intake without needing to relocate it to the right more, and that also offers good assist.

                The closest I could see is that a 924 Booster with E30 MC fits but slightly rubs on the intake boot, which is OK - but Mike said it would feel like hitting a brick wall in terms of assist.

                just wondering if anybody has tried it. or found another solution (vacuum assisted) that works.

                I'm not really ready to put my e23 hydrualic setup yet and prefer to find a vacuum assisted solution that will work.

                Thanks

                      I just installed one of lee's booster delete kits on the swap I'm doing and it fits with ease on both the factory airbox and the hamman style carbon airbox. If you must keep the booster, you can also buy carbon airbox's with a little bit moved over to aid in clearing the booster.

                          Car isn't running yet, but the plan is to use e36 M3 brakes. MC is stock 320i touring. I'll comment on the feel when we get there, just stating currently that it fits!

                            Even with the delete, and just a master it's a tight fit with an s50b32. It works great though and the feel is great when you get the proper pads for your application and the ratio correct. Both these are running stock e30 325is master cylinders. Mine's running a Massive 300x22 BBK up front and the s50b32 is running M roadster brakes front and rear with a manual proportioning valve.
