The Hydratech system is really nice. My only issue with it is that is tooooo much boost for my tastes. My daily driver is a '00 Mustang GT 'vert with factory hydroboost that is notoriously way underboosted. The same pedal effort that'd barely slow me down in the Mustang almost puts me through the windshield of my Camaro. I've a similar problem with several rental cars, so I blame that more on being used to the 'stang than an issue with the Hydratech system.

Works fantastic for me. Can't have enough brakes for my tastes.
I have it pared up with 13" drilled and slotted Wilwood disc's.
