Hi,

My car has been down for some upgrades recently and I just got it all put back together tonight and when I went to drive it I notice the brake pedal is super stiff, and it takes a lot of force to stop the car. I think I might have put a hole in the brake booster, because I was drilling through the firewall to route my hoses and wires for my new Profec B and I put one pretty close to the brake pedal =(.

I pretty sure this is the problem, as the brakes worked perfect before the down time, I just was wondering if theres anything anyone can think of I should check. If I drill a hole in it its pretty much toast though, correct?

Thanks
 
Yes, if you drilled a hole by accisent in the booster, you probably punctured the "membrane" and it is toast.
