Hydroboost with stock 1" MC

[jgkurz 52]

Is anyone running a 1" Master Cylinder with their HydroBoost setup?  I understand a 1-1/8 MC is recommended with a HydroBoost but I was hoping a 1" would be tolerable on the street.

What do you all have?

I'm running a 1-1/8" MC with my Hydraboost.

The total caliper piston area governs how large MC you need. But for big brake kits 1-1/8" MC is the way to go.

Thank you for the response. I am aware of the 1-1/8 recommendation but Jim @ Hydratech said many people also use the 1".

I am curious how sensitive a 1" MC is compared to the 1-1/8. I might prefer it.

Hey, just try it. If it's too sensitive, replace it with a bigger MC. Worst case you'll just spread your investment.
