    Good question. The Geo booster is like stepping on a rock. I'm using a different M/C though thats closer to OE diameter.

    One word of wisdom, I suggest to undersize the MCs as you will be put-off by the amount of strength required to push a boosterless pedal. Most people contacting me about race pedal set-ups are usually not too happy to have to grow gorilla legs after they installed a Tilton/Wilwood set-up with MCs sized after recommendations for the interwebzzz. It makes braking less subtle, and the driving borderline with dangerous. Double-up pedal travel, and divide by half the required force to brake. Small MCs are good... Believe me. Especially that with front and rear fixed calipers, the amount of pedal travel is minimal.

    You mean to increase the leverrage?

    I am now making pedal clusters with dual masters (or triple w/ clutch) that allow for balance control via cable. It will incorporate most aftermarket M/C's (Tilton, Wilwood, AP, or Girling)

    Is possible to bolt the top cap of stock oil reservoir, to have the lever sensor?

    I've gotten a few PMs regarding the setups.

    Both are currently being made to order. Interested parties can PM me and we can discuss the details of your existing setup and I can make some recommendations on what may best fit your needs.

    The masters still mount in the engine bay. An additional hole(s) will have to be drilled. I have a template to make things easy for the installer.
