On my way home last week on a winding country two lane, there was a Dodge in front of me. We were being slowed by a couple of cars in front of us. The Dodge happened to turn off the same way I was going to go, onto one of my favorite roads. Well, I heard him open it up and then noticed his...
Looking for owners impressions of Wilwood brakes, particularly 6 piston big brake kits.
Thanks,

Anyone out there running the Wilwood front drag kit (140-14103) on the street? I'm considering that kit for dedicated street use on an Eco to replace the stock 2 pots. I'm also considering the Aero6 14" kit (140-13886). Anyone with first hand experience with these kits please throw your...

I have a 2019 base eco convertible, and want to install the Ford Performance M-2300-V front Brembo kit (as I understand, the same rotors and calipers as the GT PP 1). The Ford Performance website leads me to believe the M-2300-V Brembo kit will fit my base ecoboost if I also install their...
