We're back!
It's been three years since we shifted to "dealer only" status, brought about by our relocation from the MotorCity to the MusicCity. We have now re-opened to the public, and the legendary customer service everybody had previously enjoyed is now back better than ever!

We are also working diligently to get the rest of the website updated, with a goal of having it completed for the first of the new year. If you have any questions about previously ordered models, or models that haven't been yet listed on the website, please feel free to call or e-mail.

Congrats Paul, you guys have come a long way!! I already have Hydroboost system on the car and it is one of the top three additions to my build. The brake performance is fantastic!!!

Any news on an aluminum booster ? I vaguely recall something like that was in the works. Be nice to shave some weight off these behemoths.

Guys - Hydratech is by far one of the best companies you will find serving Pro-Touring. Paul's products and service are awesome - bar none.
You will not believe how great your brakes are until you have a Hydroboost installed! Improved braking power, advanced safety all in a very tidy compact package.
Also the shipping quality is tremendous - wait to you see - the hydroboosts are boxed in way that they will survive a three-story-drop - seriously.
Class all the way.
Best of luck Paul.

Paul, glad to see things are going great for you and the company! I hope to meet you in person some time and thank you for a great product!
I have the first 2nd gen s-series model you built for my bagged 98 Sonoma(about 7 years ago I think, lol). Fit perfectly and has always worked flawlessly.
Thanks again
Robert

Yes - finally getting somewhat settled into our new chapter here in the great state of Tennessee. Having this wonderful 'Great Recession' hit just about exactly when we moved operations down here has made things interesting to say the least, but I *think* I see some light at the end of the tunnel (just praying it isn't a freight train heading our way). Thank you Kevin for being such a continued evangelist of the technology across the various forums!
Yes, I do suppose that we actually have come a long way over the years. We are closing in on the ten year mark of existence, though definitely have much more to still accomplish. I really smile when I see reference to the installation of these systems as one of the Top 3 additions to their builds. From the driver's seat, it adds a whole new dimension of bringing another "fun pedal" to the experience (watch those rear view mirrors though for the guy behind you that can't stop like you can!). When you're packing that much horsepower, it becomes that much more obvious that you need to be able to stop QUICKLY, PRECISELY,and EXACTLY every time.
Ah yes - the Alumaboost Project... Referring back to this wonderful economic state we have found ourselves in, all we can really do right now is to continue evolving the engineering of current line up (never mind keeping the lights on!). Who would have ever thought that we'd be hearing about entire countries going into bankruptcy? Good grief... Given a chance to ever get our hands on some real funding, we will make it happen - any investors out there willing to take a walk on the wild side? Meanwhile, we are struggling like most everybody else just to weather through this current economic sh*tstorm. I would like to point out that these systems are only 6 pounds~ heavier than a stock 1st gen vac booster, though they do feel heavier in your hands due to the small size. The installation of an aluminum master cylinder with the system actually brings parity to the weight as compared to a complete 1st gen vacuum booster and cast iron master cylinder being replaced!

With the praise that comes at times, I only feel that we are taking care of business. Providing a product that fits and functions as advertised, packaging it properly to survive the rigors of shipping, seems like only base elements. Many years ago when I ran Paul's Performance Shop and Unlimited Racing, it was always a challenge to make the best of getting aftermarket parts to fit without having to re-engineer everything around it. So much so, that it is key to us to make sure all the correct parts are provided, and then also fit and function beyond a customer's expectations (on this end of the aftermarket existence now producing components for the builds).
Thank you for choosing Hydratech!

good to see you are back around. I had worked with you on a few magazine projects years back and had great customer service, but then couldn't get through even through my parts business. Saw the other day that you were back to the public, so I look forward to dealing direct with you again.
