    I built my first e-brake.
    Thought I should put it on the forum. Let me know if anyone needs a hand with building one. Happy to help! :)

    I used a e-brake off eBay and a wilwood pull slave. I'm running a 300psi 0.5v to 4.5v and will interface this with the Bodnar circuit I'm using for my button box. One question, should I go to a higher pressure sensor?
