umm dont remember who exactly but i remember reading a couple times in different places that if i try to use the stock N/a brake booster then it will blow up cause boost will build too much pressure. was i wrongfully informed? if so then forget this post and ill just use the stock N/a booster. please anybody who has done this swap let me know or naybody who knows for sure. thanks -mike

oh, I see what you are saying. I don't believe the stock N/A brake booster will be damaged when the turbo starts creating positive manifold pressure because the stock brake booster line already has a check valve in it.
