Does heat from turbo cause brake/clutch cylinder problems

Would heat from the turbo cause pressure to be lost in the brake/clutch pedal

the turbine housing is very close to the brake hard lines, I might just move the flange over some to get some more room and angle it

Any extra heat on your fluids is bad, use a heat sheild maybe get some wrap and wrap your turbine and down pipe. Besides that it will probley lower the temp in the bay which is always nice

yes, without any heat protection it is possible to actually boil your brake fluid, which is needless to say very very very bad for your stopping power/livelyhood etc
