Default Car locks up right front under hard braking???

I have the stoptech kit, srf fluid, pagid orange pads, braided lines. When I romp on the pedal the steering wheel gets jerked out of my hand pointing my three spoke at a 90 degree angle and seemingly locking up the right front. I think this is severly limiting the braking and is really annoying and scary! What could cause this? Air in the lines disproportionately??? This has been this way for some time but wasn't this way initially. Could there be brake pad material deposited on the rotors???? I have the sloted rotors also. Thanks.

Check to make sure the LEFT caliper is bled and working properly.

yeah I was thinking maybe there is air in the left so it isn't working exactly the same as the right. When I was bleeding the car I did note that I ran out of fluid at the end using a motive bleeder.
