my pedal isn't a "hard pedal". I can't really explain it, but I guess I would say that it has always had a "dead spot" where you can feel the vacuum is missing and you have to wait for it to come back. I did install a canister when I built the car 10 years ago, because I used to have a highrise and dual quads and it really sucked then. the
entire brake system was brand new stock. the car still has under 10k since it was built
back when I originally put the car together, there wasn't much aftermarket support, I didn't know anything, and I didn't have much money. now the aftermarket is great, I know enough to get myself in trouble, and I have a little bit of play money, so I think it's time to do some small upgrades, and rims, tires, brakes, and overdrive (I'm currently only getting about 8MPG on the highway) are at the top of the list
