And now you need something big out back to counteract the huge front brakes so the car will actually stop.

Had to try to relate it to something he might understand, since clearly there's some misunderstanding happening here.

How is the braking feel without a booster? Could you share your source for the adapter plate? Considering that mod in the future.

well damn its been awhile since ive updated, all the pictures I shared over from facebook are all missing. ugh, well heres some recent pictures. new things, full chomolly 8.50 cert drag cage w/ a pair of kirkey prodrag seats, guage cluster mocked up, ran fuel lines, and I decided to run e85 and make maybe more power than earlier anticipated. got a pte6262 and tial 44mm ewg and then I had to enlarge the fuel system a little , -8 feed/ -6 return and picked up a set of fic1650s. got my carbon Miata cf taillight panel, relocated my oil cooler stacked behind the ic, ran vacuum lines and started on the parachute stuff. next on the list is wiring.
