Running without brake servo?
Brake master cylinder moved over to the driver side, servo removed and brake pedal acting directly onto master cylinder……
Is the driver going to run into a limping monster with the right leg twice the size of his left?
Thoughts please….

Race cars often run with no servo, to give a better pedal feel, but at the expense of a heavier pedal action.

Any idea how heavy the braking action would be? I was used to drive an aircooled porsche and got used to the clutch on that….

i am glad i found this…. as i aswell am going for KR 1.8 on ZX9 carbs got all the stuff now but mine is an 1980 golf N and it only has a master cylinder on the drivers side. I wanted to leave it as it was and just tidy it up and renew the pipes. Is this not a good idea???
how did you get on with this mate??
still looking at this or remote servo/pedal box arrangement….

There is alot less peddle travel and you do have to push the peddle harder and you can adjust the bias better the front and back and i much prefer it to the old servo and the engine bay looks a hole lot better and it gives me more room the a bigger manifold
