If you run a high performaance engine with dual sidedraughts & a hot cam, then fitting a booster seems to do little but add weight & complexity.

This sort of engine develops very little vacuum anyway & brake boosters need vacuum to work.

The factory fitted triple Weber Valiant Chargers [E37, E38, E48 & E49 models] did not run brake boosters for this very reason.
