I've been working on a brake upgrade for my Volkswagen Bug VW Beetle for the last couple of months (Hey I've been busy! lol). I've fitted a remote brake servo to improve the braking ability and setup I already have. This video explains the brake setup I already have, shows how to fit a remote brake servo and compares braking performance before and after the brake upgrade and how I improved my braking ability.
