If I could find the parts I need reasonable, I would not even think of selling these, after I bedding them in and did a hard stop...I thought I broke my collar bone...they are awesome. But at this point great stopping power is not doing me any good on a car that does not move.

Control solenoid works great with Hydra, if you do go that route and dont use the Perrin just make sure you get a non-stepper type solenoid. Lethal Motorsports is doing the 2-step, we have been consulting with Andrew from Hydra on this.
