Seen a few people have been using the clio brake booster for the 24v m5x swaps... How well do they work and is there any difference in the brake pedal?

Not doing a 24v swap but will be doing ITBs and the intake for no# 6 gets close to the booster so need something smaller.

Supposed to work just fine, slightly better pedal feel I think also. I havemine nearly ready for fitting but the car won't be on the road for a long time yet before I can test it.

Just got mine back from being converted last week, can't tell any difference tbh! Even forgot they had changed it until I clocked it under the bonnet.

Compared to my cabbie,the pedal is a touch 'lower',but the brakes work just fine.

Took a few experiments with spacer bars to get a 'feel' that I was happy with,but well worth the effort.
