Default brakes

i changed the brake master cylinder/ booster on a civic sedan, i used integra parts and bled the system I have presure when the car is off but when its on i can hear air leaking and the pedal goes to the floor. does this mean that the booster is bad

I just installed an EX m/c on my hatch, the m/c came with the nipples and tubing needed to bench bleed.

Basically, you thread nipples to the ports and attach fluid lines to them, then you run the lines back into the reservoir. Cycle the m/c piston with a screwdriver which drives the air out of the mc and into the reservoil where it floats out of the system.
