Default boost making brake problems

i have a boosted d15 pushing 10lbs. it has done fine for three months but all the sudden the breaks started to grab by there self. after replaceing the master cyclinder and booster i come to fine out its the one way valve from the manifold to the booster. i replaced it with a orginal and it worked fine for about 10 minites and it did it again. so i went and got a heavy duty one from a truck, and the same thing happened. has anyone had this problem or know what i can do to fix it.

did you connect a vacuum line before the check valve for the brake booster?

shorten the throw from the back of your brake pedal just a little bit

you have to tee into the brake booster line before the check valve (inbetween the check valve and the intake manifold). Is this how you have it done?
