Brakes: Bias Box Vs Bias Valve

[merc-blue]

Im currently looking at a tilton pedal box for one of my cars and trying to work out weather to go for a bias box or just to use a bias valve,

im tossing up on the 2 what do other people think?
I think that a single (aftermarket) boosterless MC with a good valve (willwood, ap racing etc) should do the trick, but what losses are incorperated in it, eg by limiting flow do i lose pressure somewere,
I understand that a bias valve doesnt work aswell as a bias box on paper but in practice is there a big difference?

It wont be constantly ajusted it will be set and forgot (maybe occational tweaks to see how it affect the braking performance)

Do many people have experince with both?

Cheers

Is this for a race car or road car?

[oldcorollas]

you mean balance bar between two master cylinders? (ie one front, one rear) or?

for single master, choose your disc diameters and caliper pistons to get close to balance adn then balance with bias valve (if rear is too much),
or, choose whatever discs and calipers, then choose your two masters and use balance bar.
or something like that

can twins and a balance bar re registered (if you are going that way?)

Race car, sorry i should have pointed that out.
Im have just bought a "clubman" and am doing research on what other people have done and mashing it with my crazy ideas.
and drawing up all te fabrication and other stuff that needs to be done

Yes a Bias pedal box is 2 MC with a balance bar in teh middle

[thechuckster]

balance bar to setup overall braking balance (in car) and a limiting valve (set during testing only or frantic pit changes) to set the maximum rear brake action.

Depends on where you race the car and how often you want to change/test different brake pad and disk materials.
