Will a master cylinder from a 90-91 teg bolt to our brake booster or do you need the 90-91 teg brake booster also?

You need to use the teg brake booster as well. However in my opinion I see no sense in using a Teg master Cyl and brake booster, if the CRX Si model uses the same master cyl and booster as the DX, and HF. My point is most people want to convert over because the Teg came with all wheel disc brakes, when they need to realize that the CRX Si 89+ which came with all wheel disc came equipped using the same master cyl and booster as their lower models. In the end you have more money to spend it on crossed drilled/slotted rotors, higher grade of pads, etc to improve you braking performance. I'm using 91 Teg brakes all the way around to include the proportional valve, with my stock master cyl and booster, and she stops on a dime. I'm not trying to discourage you in any way if you still want to go through the steps to use a Teg master and booster. This is only my suggestion and my opinion.

MrDohc2, i think your wrong, i'm pretty sure the 89 crx si comes with the 15/16 mc, just like the ex. The brake booster might be the same but the prop valve is different for sure.

I swap a master from a 90-91 prelude with the valve proportionning and thats all bolts-on... you don't need to modified your brake line.... BOLT-ON 15/16
I paid 30$ (canadian) in a scap yard for that..

Re: Can we use a 90-91 teg brake master cylinder? (FAUCON)
i went to the dealership this past weekend caauuuse i have a bad MC and figured i'd replace it with something bigger. bigger is better, you know? the guy i talked to is the guy from heel-toe racing that posts on this site, marcus. we ahd a little chat about it and apparently the ED MC's are all the same size, part number too in most cases, except for the HF model i think it was. i ordered a new unit from carparts.com with a 10% off coupon i found on a google search for carparts.com coupon. there was free shipping too, but the shiping was only $5, and the 10% was $7. it came to $70.XX with shipping. brand new unit, made by wagner. cmoe to think of it...i hope i ordered the right unit. better check on that...

Re: Can we use a 90-91 teg brake master cylinder? (akachef)
according to the listings, it looks as though there is a 1 inch master cylinder which was available for the 4 door 90 integras 1will that one bolt up. I need to replace my MC and I'm eventually going with the fastbrakes wilwood setup so I figure if I'm spending money I should go ahead and upgrade. So can I get this 1 inch MC, and will it fit? Thanks
