For those that have done it the reservoirs look different, what did you guys do about that?
Any tips on the install, will be completely swapping my brake assembly (with the exception of the big black booster, bc i think its the same as the one we have already although i have the rsx-s one, rear calipers)

Use the EP3 reservoir. The lines will fit the typeS master cylinder.

Correct. The Type S master cylinder may not be needed. It works fine with a 4-piston caliper upgrade, but I have not tried it with a 6-piston caliper upgrade.

^ i got it for cheap, $40 with the booster (might look to resell that since it lists for like 400 bucks new=wtfbbq). Just doing the RSX-S caliper upgrade, powerslot cryo rotors on the front, SS lines, speedbleeders, hawk hps on all 4 corners, and then the master cylinder, probably may upgrade to spoon calipers or something similar in the future still want to be able to run 16" tires in teh winter and on the track..

I was told that the DC5-S m/c wont fit b/c it's slightly bigger than the EP's. I already have 05' DC5-S brakes on all corners but want the benefit of the 05' m/c.

All the fittings for the lines are interchangable. A handfull of others have already done the complete ITR swap, including BMC and propo valve. I am sure Ocelaris added the BMC as well when he did his ITR swap with no issues.

Who told you the DC5S BMC wouldnt fit the EP3?
