Porshce Calipers vs Willwood Calipers
I know that 034 and ecs sell the boxter dual piston caliper, A8 rotors with lines and spacer. However a new guy i purchased drilled rotors from is telling me he could get a Willwood dual piston calipers, rotors, lines

wilwoods require lots of maintanance, take apart and clean them
Brembos are your best and easiest caliper to run, there are already made solutions for mounting brackets and rotor sizes.

StopTech also makes a 986 Porsche caliper as well.
#5
wilwoods do not have dust boots, so any road crap that gets on can also get in and ruin the seals.
even though I have used them on teh street, they are not appropriate for street use.

Porsche Calipers vs Willwood Calipers
I guess no Willwood Calipers come with dust seals? If that is the case Porsche 993 calipers or the break kit for 034 here I come. Or just throwing this out there Cayenne 6 piston calipers? what rotor size would accommodate the Cayenne Porsche Caliper? Has this been done before?

Cayanne calipers are over kill, save the money. you can also run the boxter S or 996 non turbo calipers, there are brackets available for these too. smaller than the 993TT calipers but they are mono block and believed to have better stopping ability than the older 993TT calipers and they are cheaper new and easier to find. work with the euro A8 rotors sold at ecstuning

Porsche Calipers
If I do get the 996 no turbo calipers where could I source the spacers. Also about the break lines where could I source those. I do know a guy that could get aftermarket stainless break lines & rotors which would be drilled and zinc plated. Just the calipers and spacers I would need. I am located in toronto canada by the way

Don't 993TT/928GTS/996/Boxster Porsche Brembo calipers have 4 pistons?
Also, someone told me that the Willwoods require a special brake fluid that contains Teflon, that affects the stock rear calipers...
