Default Intalled Earl's 5 Piece Brake Line Kit

I did this last weekend and it was a good upgrade.
The pedal feel is much more consistent, and firm. (My 04 had a really mushy pedal before)
I went ahead and added speed bleeders. ($ 11 a pair from O'Reillys BTW: Front and rear are different)

Next project is moving the AIT snsor to the elbow after the whipple instead of the maf. (That is almost done, just need to run the wiring.)
Depending on IATs, may step up to a bigger pulley.

I did brake rotors and pads already. It helped the actual stop, but the brakes still felt mushy. They are now firm.
Glad this worked, my alternative was a hydraboost setup.
