Just resurrecting this thread with updated info (for the future). Ray (snap0946) and I just fitted a dual booster and uprated master to my AU 1.5 XR8. No hammering was required to fit the bigger booster, the AU 1.5 (Jan 2000) seems to have has a different firewall than the AU 1 series as it it the same as the AU2's.

The only thing we had to do was to drill 4 holes for the booster, all in different locations than the original 2.

Car stops way better now with BA front calipers & rotors and standard rear brakes.
