[QUOTE="patooyee, post: 551229, member: 483"] I don't know to be honest. Probably? A stock-style MC is one bore with two pistons in it on one pedal. A Willwood-style setup is two bores, one piston each, on one pedal. So I would think if you loose resistance in front of either piston in either setup the pedal will be easier to push since there is now half the resistance on the same pedal in both setups? I busted a caliper off one time a long, long time ago using a Wilwood setup. I honestly don't recall how the pedal felt afterwards. But so long as one piston is still applying pressure you should be able to apply as much, if not more, pressure to the remaining caliper. I say more because now the force your leg could apply is applied to a single piston instead of two. So maybe that's why the pedal might feel "spongy," since now it takes half the force to do the same amount of work that your leg is used to? Haha, the answer to your question is I don't know. :) [/QUOTE]
