If you intend to mot it and the car was fitted with it you need it working.Or a friendly tester. Would require new lines or at least parts of lines to join up from mc to the rest of system. Could then remove the sensors, abs pump, etc |

if it is not there it can't be tested, it doesn't need to be there atall for the mot if it was born with it. if you have it, but it's broke, then that is when it's a problem (what i was told by the garage)i routed all new pipes from the MC to the calipers via a bias valve and did away with the valve underneath had the front MC port splitting down to a T piece, going off to both front calipers had the rear MC port going to the inside, to a bias valve, out the back and to another T piece; two lines to each rear caliper. ________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |

Yeah, do as Rikky says, thats how I did it. I'd keep the brake servo too, I have 2x master cylinders and no servo and the brakes don't feel half as good. Cost wise you should be able to do it for around ________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring |

it's that metal block that has a load of outlets on it, you use it for propping your block upright when you remove the bottom mount.________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |
