    Bit more info, what size and type of calipers and rotors are you using? What sort of car? How longs your pedal going to be? What size wheels and tyres?

    I'm using Wilwood, 4 piston calipers on all four corners of a car I'm rebuilding using a 1.00" Wilwood, dual outlet, remote resrervoir master cylinder.

    The piston sizes are equivalant to GM caliper, piston square inches (2.38" front, 2.00" rear).
    No booster...stops great.

    Using a simillar setup on another car I'm working on also. Just using actual GM calipers ("heavy"!!) in the front, and Ford in the rear...same piston square inches though.
