Hmm i'm going to have to double check everything here..
But from what I remember when I traced the brake lines around the place...
The original booster is removed, so now a master cylinder is bolted directly to the firewall/peddle.
There is 2 brake lines from the master cylinder, front & rear. These go into a T piece which changes it to 1 line, this one brake line goes into the remote booster cylinder (slave i'm assuming?), then a brake line comes out of the cylinder and goes back into a t piece to get the lines to the front and rear.
This setup might be totally wrong, and no offence to my mate if he reads this, IT PROBABLY IS! 
I originally thought it was the one way valve in the vacuum line also. He was complaining about brakes, I took it for a drive and felt like the booster was not working. So checked the 1 way valve and it was backwards. So I turned it around and said should be much better. He takes it for drive and says WTF did you do brakes dont work at all. Basically with the valve the correct way it causes this reverse boosting, whereas he had it backwards which was in a way making the booster unused.
