Any pro tips for replacing the brake booster?
#23
I haven't seen enough of the booster and master combinations in person but my understanding is that the thick/thin booster on NB2s is an ABS vs non ABS car difference and that the masters are interchangeable between all NB2 cars. The thread is super off topic now- andrew swapped his NA booster/master combo for a non ABS NB2 booster and master in order to improve brake feel.

I put a 1" 929 MC in my ABS 94 and did not need to change the booster. Based on this mt.net thread I was led to believe that I would, but the 929 MC bolted right up to the NA8 ABS booster. I'm guessing the NB2 15/16" MC would as well.
It's possible (likely?) that the appropriate booster has a higher boost ratio for lower pedal effort, but I actually prefer the higher effort, especially with Carbotech XP8/XP10.
FWIW, I have two NB2 boosters that are should work with the 15/16" and 1" masters, though I have not tested either of them. I'd be willing to let them go for shipping + $10.

I think the booster/MC combinations are significantly more complex than the ones that Keith looked up and posted in that thread.
