A brake system includes a fluid reservoir, a brake pedal unit, a first source of pressurized fluid, a pump assembly, and a valve for selectively closing off communication between an inlet of the pump assembly and the brake pedal unit. The brake pedal unit includes a housing and a pair of pistons slidably disposed in the housing. The pair of pistons are movable to generate brake actuating pressure at first and second outputs for actuating at least one wheel brake within a first circuit and a second circuit, respectively. The first source of pressurized fluid actuates the at least one wheel brake under normal braking conditions. The pump assembly actuates the at least one wheel brake under a manual push-through mode.
