To all the guys with this part, how tight do you put it? As tight as possible? Because mine just keeps tightening and tightening, decided to stop just incase i damaged something.

un do it.
once u see the actual brake booster starting to flex the firewall, you would want to stop.

<Austin Powers> Toit like a toiga!
Tight enough that it doesn't flex... but loose enough that it doesn't flex

you should tighten it until there is a tiny amount of pressure on the booster.. Dont forget that this is just preventing flex, not reinforcing the firewall
