[Hydratech®]

Gokou - you DO know that your current discussion is reading to me as if saying "I would like to remove my power adder / supercharger from my engine and go back to running naturally aspirated and still make 1200 horse" - right? It can be done, but the trade offs are enormous. You have been running a Hydratech hydraulic brake assist system since 2003. 12 years later, you are wanting to taste braking in manual mode again because of an exhaust pipe?

Making more power than ever with your current twin turbo LS build will definitely thrill you with the "GO" pedal with your new twin whistler's, but "rotsa ruck" finding happiness in matching a higher rear wheel HP level to what you have been used to in the braking department.

Some exhaust pipe routing is taking you back to manual brakes again? You may have forgotten what alternate braking options feel like twelve years later - here comes your refresher course in why you went with Hydratech so many years ago (when you where running your earlier centrifugal supercharged configuration).

Sounds like: "I can't fit my turbo downpipe where I want it to go, so I'm switching back to manual steering".

I say this most definitely not to make a new sale (as you have already been tickled with your existing system since '03, and have been a great advocate since), much more so because we see this day after day / year after year and observe how the story ends all the time. A "silly" exhaust pipe routing clearance issue now has you wanting to go back to manual brakes? All these years later of running a Hydratech system, you have forgotten and now need a "relearning curve"... Go back to the DOJO and take your hits.

Did I just toss a rock at a beehive?
