Allright-
Guess this will be the first of many questions I ask here-

Is there any reason I can't add a brake booster to my stock MC? I've searched here and seen a lot of people have swapped to disc and changed the MC, but I just can't afford, nor do I have the space to do this right now, although it is in my plans later.

I will never claim to be a master mechanic, but I know enough to be dangerous. Would I have to get a different MC or is this as simple as just adding it in? I'd like to avoid buying parts and just experimenting if I can avoid it. It seems like I read something about a rod not being long enough or something like that. Any advice or tips for a newbie?

Sorry for the dumb questions, and yes I did search, but I just haven't seen this done or explained without changing the MC.
