hydroboost brakes

I installed hydro boost brakes on my car and now my abs do not work the abs computer shows no errors but the light is on the dash and the brakes lock up under heavy braking. Has any one had any experince with this?

Learn something new every day....... Might have an air bubble trapped in the hydraulic modulator for the ABS.... Have you tried bleeding out the system again????

Is the "BRAKE" light on, indicating a pressure imbalance between the front and rear braking circuits?
