I just lost all pedal feel in my crx last night. Pedal went right to the floor but with one or two pumps it can still hold. I went out to autozone and picked up a new master cylinder for $65. Ill put it in tonite and hopfully get my brakes back. Is there anything else that could cause this?

sounds like its something that does'nt have to deal with boost. I can see low vaccum and making it harder to push on your pedal but your brakes will still be there. I would check the master cylinder, lines, pads, calipers, wheel cylinders, basically a whole brake inspection or take it some place like tires plus and have them do it for free.

every time I beat the brakes up on the civic it loses all pedal feel for a while. I got some Super Blue fluid to try because I am convinced the fuild is boiling. I will let you know what happens.

It`s most likly a bad master cylinder.
I`ve seen a few of them lost pressure only after the car heats up (after hard run, sitting in traffic with A/C on etc.)
replace it ASAP before you lost brake and almost died for 3+ times like me :P
