I can tell him to change out the hub, but I don't think that's it to be honest. It does it off and on though. Doing a bunch of hard braking yesterday, it would do it once, then not the next time, then do it again, then not. That tells me something is loose but there are only 2 caliper bolts and the brake pad hardware that doesn't use any bolts. I even took the brake pad hardware off of my other Brembos and put them in there and that's when it started acting like this off and on stuff.

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.
