I know the brake booster works off of vacuum, and my engine is now turbo'd, so now their is boost when it is under load. I put a check valve between the engine and the booster. The car has been sitting for 5 years (and yes I still have full brake fluid), so I'm hoping it's just calipers sticking. Now I'm thinking about running the brake booster pre-turbo since it's not working that well. I've been wanting to do a 7th gen rotor/caliper swap. What have you guys experienced with the brakes when the st204 is turbo'd? It should work with the check valve.

Um, you just hook it up to the factory location on the side of the intake manifold. Don't install any check valves or anything like that!
My car has been swapped for about 8+ years now. Trust me, there are no brake booster issues to figure out or rig up.
