Saturn Ion Brake Booster

The Brake Booster in Saturn Ion is an essential component which eases the force that a driver has to apply on the brake. It employs a vacuum chamber that tends to increasing hydraulic pressures generated by the master cylinder in order to produce a direct proportional to the force exerted by the driver on the brake pedal. There are two main types of boosters used in Ion vehicles: of vacuum-operated boosters and hydraulic boosters. Vacuum boosters operate on the basic principle of the difference of pressure of vacuum in the engine and atmospheric pressure while hydraulic boosters make use of hydraulic pressure as in the application of brakes. These are normally very efficient but can sometimes wear out and requires change of booster or complete repair kit. Also, the performance brake boosters and power brake conversion kit are available to those wish to change the braking system to become more effective and convenient.
