I'm withya!!! In my quest to keep everything "as simple as possible"...eliminate potential problems yet optimize performance, I've discovered that you don't always have to follow the crowd to get it done. I've seen several booster setups that just didn't line up correctly, that caused major interference problems with transmissions, cross members and in the end, didn't deliver the performance that a much simpler system would offer.
It's obvious you've been doing your homework...adjusting pedal ratios and paying attention to system requirements, can go a long way to getting the system correct. Relying on some vendor, who is out to make a "one-size-fits-all" package, can lighten your wallet and leave you with mediocre performance. Sometimes the "easiest way" isn't the best way!!!
