[DeTomaso] Breakes booster

[Freddy Henningsen]

Thank you so much for your reply. I will try to buy a remanufactured and see 
if it is possible without sending the old in return.

Freddy,

I can second the recommendation for a rebuilt unit from Pantera Performance. 
Normally there is a high core charge for your old unit that you are supposed 
to send in exchange after you're done replacing it, but there may be some 
flexibility on that given that you are located in Norway.

Maybe you can give the old one to one of the Norwegians who are going to the 
Fun Rally for them to hand-carry to the USA?
