When you decrease the pedal ratio, you increase the stroke in the M/C. Power brakes systems use less pedal ratio, therefor more stroke at the MC for a given pedal travel.

Same bore M/C going from manual to power sends out more volume for a given pedal travel.

That's what is different.




But wouldn't that be true only if the brake pedal was also swapped to the corresponding 'correct' ratio?

ie, just throwing a booster behind a MC won't necessarily change the stroke, or will it? It should build more pressure, which I guess would necessitate a little longer stroke, assuming you haven't bottomed out the MC.

Another question: Do manual master cylinders have more travel built in to them than power MCs do? (assuming the same diameter bore)?


If you ever find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.
