trust me you really really really really really really DONT need a servo.

i was dubious until yesterday when i drove the car properly for the first time with sorted brakes.

due to the increased pedal ratio the breaks were very very effective with very little foot pressure. it took absolutely nothing to lock the car up

the ideal setup for the roadster to get through iva without any problems is

sierra 22.2mm master cylinder
240x24mm vented front sierra discs
standard sierra 53.9mm front callipers
203x46mm sierra drums with 20.6mm slave cylinders.

as far as i know this is the only break set-up for a roadster that has passed iva first time without any tweaking of the rear pressure.
