Rear disc converstion PPV
 
I just did another rear disc converstion on my 98 civic, i haven't installed the proportioning valve yet because i've been told it doesn't really make a difference unless you have abs. So my question is how big of difference will it make if i do install the proportioning valve from a SI? Also will i even notice the brakeing difference between the two.
Thanks

depends on if you are threshold braking or not.

But seriously, who ever told you that the proper proportioning valve wont make a difference in a non-abs car does not know anything about brake systems.

Basically with out the proper proportioning valve you will have messed up your brake bias. which will have a drastic impact on your stopping distances.... when trying to break at the cars limit.
