... so now you have 3 brake boosters? 2x Bosch Gen 1, and 1x Bosch Gen 2?

LoL, excellent question, here are two reasons why I bought the Tesla iBooster
- unlike the Honda and many other Gen 1 iBoosters it sports a full size brake fluid canister (the white plastic thing) and you don't know masochism until you tried to bench bleed one of them tiny Honda style ones as demonstrated by yours truly here Honda Accord Gen 2 BOSCH iBooster Part II
- the Tesla has a fantastic adapter bracket (that silver Lord of the Rings type ring)
