I didn't bleed the calipers yet, after the install I hoped in and tested the pedal got the same BS jumped out slammed the door and gave the car the finger.

Nope just the BMC I don't think any of my calipers are dying. When I started looking for the source of this problem I thoroughly inspected all four corners. Also my reservoir was full when I started the BMC replacement. I think I'll hunt down a check valve and hope that's the issue the booster is mad expensive.

I already returned the old BMC as a core so I can't try that lol.

Yep bench bled as per the supplied instructions. Advance is really my only option next to pepboys.I'm going to vacuum bleed the brakes tomorrow when it isn't raining. Any of you have a spare booster you could sell me if that's the problem? Hang on to it if you can I might have to buy it.
