Default Rear disc conversion on a 88-91

I just put my rear disc on my 88 hatchback dx model and I am not getting pressure. We bled the lines in the right order and got all the air out but for some reason there is just no pressure. I read somewhere that it is recommended that you use the proportioning valve off of an integra to get the full preformance. I got tired of it and put it all back together and took it down the street and it works fine and like it did before. I am not having problems with it stopping so?????????
But my main question is since I am using the stock proportioning pieces could that not be sending enough pressure through the line because it is made to usually run a drum or whats up. Any answers is great.
Thanks

You need the CRX SI or 4040 Integrta Proportioning valve or else it wont send enough pressure to the back brakes

88 CRX with 90-93 teg rear disc, I didn't change the proportioning valve and it stops better than the drums.

Thanks for the input. Thats what I thought to about the proportioning valve. Like I said before I drove it around and it seems to do fine but as far as the preformance side goes it is a little better than what I had before with just the front but I am sure once I get that valve in place I will be noticing a huge difference.
Thanks again for all your help.
