16v ft. brakes & wtb a l/p bracket



well all depends on the size of the booster he's got right now, if he's
doing this on an 84 and older (81-84) he probably SHOULD change the Booster
and the Master cylinder if it is an 85-89 then the booster is the same size
as the 16v anyways, so all you have to do is upgrade the master cylinder,
and if you are buying new, the 1990 vw corrado Master cylinder (NON -ABS)
from a G60 car, will be the same thing. and cheaper part, last time, 16v M/C
146$, G60 89$.
and yeas the master cylinder should be changed when upgradeing the 9.4 to
10.1 fronts.. but if your doing that get Stainless Lines at the same time.
:) super grip!

=>isn't that also if rear drums are upgraded? i think the master cylinder
