Does anyone here ever heard of a compact brake booster for the fox body? i'm looking to replace mine and a smaller one would look a lot better as long as it works fine, thanks!

It's a case where size is related to function,

Smaller booster = less assist.

Only real option to get smaller than stock booster is a hydroboost conversion

yea i figured, and understandable, i've just seen a few compact versions of older style brake boosters for the 1st gen mustangs, and didn't know if they made some for the fox body. i'm not asking for it to work as good as a stock one, but something that is better than a manual conversion i guess

They don't really get much smaller than stock. Only smaller booster I would know of is a 87-93 4-banger booster but it's not much smaller and single diaphragm so less assist.
