Default Breaks with boost.

How do the breaks work if the work off the vaccum and u put boost on them. Or does it matter.

there's a check valve on the brake booster, so you get vaccuum but not boost in there.

do not count on braking very well when you are holding the throttle wide open anyways.

if you have the vaccume resv. diconnected you might notice that when cruising and you give it gas ( to reach 0 vaccume) your ac vents will stop pushing air from the top vents and start blowing from the foot vents.
