Quicker 0 to full pressure, less force and travel required, not messing with the stock bias and abs logic, maintaining position for a MC brace

I still have my booster, but I did delete abs about a year ago. I've done about 5000 miles of street use with about 1000 miles of that being in the mountains near Tail of the Dragon. When I first deleted ABS I was able to lock up the brakes very easily, but after putting a few miles on the car it feels normal and I haven't locked them up since the first week or so of the delete.

Why would you remove the ABS?

I was informed that I will still have the option to run ABS, even with the brake booster delete kit.

Either way, we are a long ways from that boys...I've still got a long way to go to see that part.

I just ripped the passenger-side wiring harness out from the firewall, and that was not fun.

And oh, for things to make more sense, please see my build thread...

Yeah, I'm with that!

After further thought, I'm gonna need ABS, especially if I'm going to have all this HP.

I am just thinking of the cleanest way to mount it without having it in my engine bay.

I may end up hiding it where my huge as wiper reservoir was...I mean damn, that tank was big enough to wash my entire car LoL.
