I believe Chris said the BBK runs $300 for everything you need on the front, calipers, brackets, rotors, pads, etc.

I personally would buy this is in a heartbeat if it included steel brake lines!! That would be massive.

Looks nice. I've been meaning to ask, do you have any larger cross drilled rotors for us 4-luggers?

How has the brake system performance improved? Is stopping distance, resistance to fade, etc drastically better now?

... I'm wondering how a P5 with this kit would shine out there on the track, provided the driver knows how to take advantage of the extra stopping power. Any autocrossers or other (legit) weekend warriors out there tried this setup?
