Power assist brakes, Has anyone done it? Options

[theer]

I Race an LS2 powered 914 and an LS1 powered 944 with a bunch of other guys. The 944 has a Ford hydro-boost system in place of the stock vacuum booster (no room with the v8). Works great, if maybe a little touchy for my taste.

The 914 has upgraded Boxster brakes, but no power assist. I like it better, but everyone else prefers the assist.

Has anyone figured out a way to get power assist for 914 brakes? We are pursuing an idea to use a Tesla brake module in the front trunk, with a stock MC (cap off all but one brake line) driving a slave cylinder which activates Tesla master. Even Better would be a electro brake module that’s hydraulically activated directly from the master…

We are still brainstorming, so any ideas are welcome!

Thanks!

I'd look into a dedicated "race" type dual master cylinder set up.

Seriously adjustable, good units have a balance bar to help with front to rear balance.

Some units come with adjustable pedal ratios.

I'd be VERY careful trying to adapt a can-bus operated system (Telsa) out of a modern car.

One of the members here had a serious accident racing a Honda with 3rd or 4th gen ABS which had the ability to individually operate a caliper for "stability control".

The video of his accident almost looks like CGI.
He goes into a corner and the car spins the WRONG direction.

I'm not sure a non-abs car could ever spin like his did without hitting something solid first.

I'd bet Ken Brock wouldn't have been able to save it...

Serious "due diligence" needs to be done if you're trying to adapt OG to modern.
