I do not have a residual pressure valve installed on my car. It is my understanding that the residual pressure valve is required when the master cylinder is mounted below the level of the calipers (street rod situation). This keeps the brake fluid from flowing back into the master cylinder thereby causing mushy brakes.
I'm sure others will chime in on this issue.
