Default Brake Problem after Steel line

Hi I'm new to the forum and need help... here goes..... Okay me and a buddy of mine we just changed my stock brake lines to Earl's Steel Brake line... make story short after we change it out we bleeded the brakes and No brakes still so we check for leaks no leaks..so we assume it was the M/C or Boot... so we changed out the M/C and now i have brakes again..but i don't know if its in my head or my brakes feel some what weak from stock.... called a Local shop..they say it'll take about a day or 2 of driving before i get the full brake pressure.... is that true? or should i go back on checking for leaks?

Sorry if that's too many links. There are more out there, just search.

Did you make sure to bench bleed the MC first? You can also buy speed bleeders.

The part number is SB10125 for front and back calipers on all Integras 90'-97'.

Good luck.
