Default Gt500 brake Booster

If I upgrade my 2007 GT's brakes to the Brembos, do I need to change the booster as well?

No, especially if you are using the GT500 brake upgrade kit or parts. I did it to my 2007 Shelby and had no problems. Stopping power was a huge improvement.

From what I've heard they all used the same master cylinder and booster, which I found kinda surprising.

The GT500 booster is supposed to offer more pedal assist. I went from stock 11.5" V6 rotors to 14" brembo's and 13.8 rear rotors with the standard v6/gt booster. Pedal feels fine.

Thanks, Brembos are installed and they do feel great!
