Brake booster causing idle surge: need replacement (OEM, used, aftermarket?) 200 1993

After much testing, I've come to the conclusion that the brake booster on my '93 244 is bad. It is causing an idle surge during the warm-up process, usually only on cold mornings. One can tell it's tied in or due to the brakes somehow.

Have any of you had this happen?

What suggestions do you have on a replacement?

Thanks,
