Default Possible to run itbs with no brake booster

Is it possible to run itb's without a brake booster?Asking because i have the KKC booster delete and plan on running itb's on my new setup.
And if it is what would I do with the map sensor? Tee each runner together then to the map?

Yes you can. Brakes are going to suck, but not really any more then they would without the booster anyways.

You can do a variety of things.

I just pulled vaccuum from each runner into a vaccuum box and ran the Map off that.

I run hoses from each runner to a vacuum box that sends vacuum to my MAP and also a bigger line to my brake booster. It obviously isn't as good as having a plenum, but it is better than running no booster at all.
