Ok.....I got a question for you turbo owners. I was doin some playin around with some cleaner on my car last weekend....and I hooked it up to the brake booster vacuum line to suck it into the intake.......I got to thinking......on a turbo line.....sure you're goin to have intake manifold vacuum at idle....but on spoolin up the turbo...pressure in the manifold goes to positive pressure....ie no vacuum.......is the brake booster still hooked up to the intake manifold on the turbo cars? Or is there some other place to source vacuum from........if it's hooked up the same......how does the brake booster work with positive pressure?
Anyone....anyone?
Thanks
Josh

Brake booster question
There is a one-way valve in the hose from the manifold to the booster
and I mean IN the hose you probably won't be able to see it I am not
sure how they got the valve inside the hose but it is there. You will
see a the hose and it will say ENGINE under the arrow so that the
hose stands a chance of being installed right.

Brake booster question
The valve allows the engine to apply vacuum to the booster but when
the pressure in the manifold exceeds the pressure in the booster the
valve closes. I first noticed this on a n/a engine it was probably
there to prevent pressure from a backfire reaching the booster I think
pressure does bad things to the boosters and the booster used with ABS
is supposedly very expensive.

Brake booster question
Pump might be needed but how about a reserve vacuum tank after the
check valve ? I have a pressure tank around here from a air suspension
conversion that I might try and I would imagine one would be cheap
from a parts yard as it is the only part of that system that wasn't a
chronic failure item when the cars got older.
