Personally I've expeienced more controversy with people claiming the brakes are soft/hard, etc.
Street cars in my views should have a softness to them. They are not race brakes.
If you need to go further, research just about any Ford service manual of any car of any year that is using power brakes.
You are going to find a picture of a brake pedal having the effort on the pedal measured with a dial gauge.
That's how that is measured. Not weather you were barefoot, had Nike's on or your bed room slippers.
Production cars are made for average everyday people, not Nicky Lauda's demands.
You are getting nowhere unless you read pressures directly from the master and the calipers. You need hard numbers to compare to.
