hi
I just finished installing hydroboost on my charger, its off a 98 ford mustang,
I'm still using my stock mopar power steering pump with an inline-t the power-steering has straight through flow on the return and the hydo t's in at 90 degrees(hopefully that makes sense)
when the car is idling and in drive, if i press the brake pedal the car will die down and stall, the power steering belt squeals a bit on startup witch I will tighten tonight but it seems like the pump stops the motor?
any ideas or remodies?
thanks jason

Sounds like the pump is going bad, or can't take the strain. Or the lines are attached wrong, and forces the high pressure back against the pump somehow.
