hi mate,
yeah, your right, the boost will pressurize you brake and clutch... which is bad.
all you need is a one way valve in the vacuum line head to the master cylinders.
you could probly get one from an importer as all tubos need em....
brake shops probly stock em, but i cant confirm as my one came with my front cut....
Cheers
Stew

they already have a one way valve in them... thats why when you press your brake pedal after the engine has been shut down you still have power assistance for one or two applications after shutdown
