By adding a second caliper on the first master cylinder you will have a reduction of 50% braking power. The reason is the master brake cylinder has a certain capacity lets say 40cc. the disc caliper has a capacity say 40cc. By adding two brake calipers volume is now 80cc the master cylinder can only hope to compress the calipers up to 40cc. A very simple way to increase braking power on a vehicle is to upgrade to a larger master brake cylinder. Fieros upgrade braking by using Chevy Blazer master brake cylinders. Hooking up to a bleeder valve is not recommended since the valve is critical for removing air out of the braking system. A better way is to hard line the main line to a t-block then run to each caliper. using rigid tubing will increase the braking over the flex tubing that came with the kit.
