Re: 944 brakes and master cylinder

Hello-

I can attest to the stock master cylinder being quite adequate when it comes to running Porsche 944 or 944turbo brakes. I was running the non turbo brakes and they worked great!

If you work out the leverage ratio there (54mm front caliper size, 36mm rear, 19.06mm MC), you get 2.25:1. That's WAAAY front biased. I'd imagine that the fronts lock quite a bit before the rears are doing much if anything at all.

Take care,
