So I kind of took a step backwards this week. After futher inspection of the interior of my car, more rust was found. So the decision was made to get the whole body media blasted and a baked on primer applied. This thing just turned into a complete resto-mod.

No booster does not necessarily mean stiff pedal if the pedal ratio is good and correct mc is used though...aka tilton/wilwood configs.Mtech1 v8 build thread - https://www.r3vlimited.com/board/sho...d.php?t=413205

provided the pedal lever ratio is 6.25:1, the pedal feels like a 25mm master on a boostered 4:1 ratio pedal.
boostered pedals keep a 4:1 lever ratio.
boosterless pedals should have a 6.25:1 lever ratio.
i have not used the "massive" unit, but i have used his products and they are top notch. i would also assume it uses a 6.25:1 ratio.
for reference:
owned 15+ e30's, a few converted (m50, m50tu, s52, s50b32, s54 .... now ls2)
built, daily driven, tracked and logged over 50k miles. used multiple brake system combinations.
