Default Opinion on GSR brake swap (what BB/mc???)

so heres my problem: i aquired all the parts from a 99 gsr to do a brake conversion on my eg. the shop said i was better off getting the brake booster from an rs or a civic si (i believe the si one is 15/16th as well?) so i dont have to rebend the lines for my 1'' MC. sooooooo im not really sure it matters or if theres a huge difference in the 2.

someone enlighten me

Talk to litterbox. He will say the 1" is way better than the 15/16". But you need to reflare one line and bend them. Many people use 15/16" and they said it's sufficient enough.

I'm using a 15/16th brake booster on a F&R GSR brake swap on my 99 civic hatch and feels great! I also have stainless lines too tho, so results may vary
