    I'm talking about booster wise...
    How do you plan on mounting the booster
    Or do you plan on deleting the booster and extending the pedal length and play around with master cylinder diameters?

      Using the stock e34 mounting bracket behind the front drivers side headlights, and using an extended push rod from the pedal. Its how the brakes had to be set-up for an m62 swap, so I figured I'd just keep it the same.

        Will the engine allow clearance for the push-rod?

        Have you found an adjustable turnbuckle-style rod to do it?

            It should, its thinner than the m62. And no, once I get it mounted in I'm just going to measure and go from there. Wouldn't be much harder to do an adjustable one, but If you measure correctly it shouldn't really matter.

                    interesting. makes me wonder why the E30V8 guys just didn't fab up a booster bracket in front of the headlight?

                      Eh, use the sig if he wants. I put it out there for anybody to use, I crashed, who doesn't drifting the first time? I'm sure he knows that anything can be put on the internet and used against you...

                          No idea. I would assume its because the guy who started it just runs a booster less set-up. I honestly hate that idea, so I decided to go this route.
