Need more vaccum??
Since installing the GM847 cam, my brakes are soft but not too bad. My main problem is when I'm coming to a stop the motor feels like it's going to stall then comes back up to normal idle (900rpms). I remember hearing about a canister of some sort from Summit? Thanks everyone...

I recently installed a vacuum canister from Summit racing. While it helped out a little bit, the brakes are still not what they used to be like. I'm going to try an electric vacuum pump next.

Yea it's an A4... it doesn't do it from park to gear, only when driving and slowing down/coming to a stop...

The vacuum cansiter I got was Summit Racing's own brand but it was similar to Cranes. It cost 33$ and I installed it underneath my CAI onto the frame (where the airpump used to be). As for electric pumps, Summit has them too, p/n SSB-28146, 259$ There are several out there but for some reason they are hard to find. the guys in the 1st and 2nd Gen tech would know where to find them since alot of their stuff isn't on the internet.

Do you know how much vacuum was added when you installed the canister?
I hope that makes sense.
