^Alloy this would be a awesome thing to make. I have been toying the idea of making this. Only if I wasn't in Iraq. Lol. Definitely keep me updated if you decide to make this!

Sorry if this is a wrong guess, but given the strength of the aluminum body of the master cylinder, I can't imagine flex causing the MC to bow out because you'd loose pressure. So the flex is the firewall and/or brake booster. Could one make a 'brake booster brace' with like a solid aluminum ring and triangle bolt it to the firewall and shock tower? Or was this a dumb thought?

FYI here is what my Integra brace looked like. Bolted to the shock tower and the big bolt bushed against the master cylinder. With the S you'd need something a bit skinnier since there are a bunch of ABS components in the way...



Or like BrakeExpert said, maybe there is a way to attach it to the firewall.
