OK the problem I am having is I am trying to build boost (on a turbo car) while sitting at the light so I can leave under some power and not have to wait for the turbo to spool. The problem is the brakes won't hold the car from rolling. I can get to where I'm almost starting to build boost but then it starts breaking loose and rolling a little.
Does anyone have any advise on what I could do or start checking. Only thing I know is to bleed the brakes. So I will be doing that but was wondering if there could be other issues.

Thanks mike
 


Miles and year of car?


If original brake hose and fluid, I'd swap those out for sure. You could lose alot of pressure in the system with worn out hoses/old fluid/worn calipers.

Poor shape brake rotors and cheap pads in the other problem for most.
 
Got c5 calipers with f body slotted rotors in front. GXP calipers and slotted rotors in back. And steel braided lines all the way around. It's on a 2000 gtp.
