Re: brake booster delete
Like for sale on Honda-tech? Or are you asking if there are new ones for sale on other websites? If so, yes. jhpusa.com has several, even their own. That's what I bought. Buy as kits or the MC and plate separate.

I don't know about 150mph, but it was hard as hell to stop one going 40mph lol. I have one for sale used but in immaculate condition if OP wants it.

Re: brake booster delete
Now on an all motor car, every pound matters. 5lbs here and 5lbs there adds up big time.
Street however, not very practical. Stopping in normal traffic is hard. You can, but its slower. So in a hard braking situation like getting cut off or a car slamming on their brakes in front of you, you'll probably hit them.
They perform well for drag racing. Its not hard at 150mph. Ive done it several times without a parachute. That being said, if you're going over 150, a parachute is required. Using these brakes with a parachute stops no problem. In fact, speedfactory uses the brake booster delete on both their outlaw and sfwd cars. and the bwr car.
So, yes, they are still used on a performance car, they perform well and they stop well on a car going 150+mph.

Re: brake booster delete
I have one with a wilwood master and only have the front brakes tied to it. Yeah it's lighter, cleaner and freed up some space but it can feel like you have no brakes at anything less than highway speeds. Driving through the pits is fun with people walking out in front of you. The car does stop but I use the staging brake as well. The one nice thing is you don't get that initial dive and unweightiing like you do on power brakes. And I'm only going 150 so I don't throw the chute.
