You get no pressure but you bled the lines properly? Im a bit confused. Does your pedal go to the floor? Is there any resistance whatsoever when the car is off?

every time one of these posts come up, i have to ask, did you put the calipers on the correct sides? bleeder valve above the brake line?
9 times out of 10, they were installed wrong. easy to do, so don't feel embarrassed.
otherwise, you may have to adjust the pedal rod from the booster to the master.

I work at a dealership as a tech and I've seen a guy do that before. Nobody told him, just kept telling him to bleed it
