Base GT 4-Pot Caliper upgrade

[mikeD4V]

I moved up to the 6 piston PP brembos and it's pretty silly how good they are even in stock form. They simply bolt on with removal of the dust shield. At $250 per caliper and another $100 per rotor, it's hard to beat the value if you're looking to push the car at the track on a budget.

Two piece rotors for the 4 piston brakes cost roughly as much as the whole 6 piston brembo set up. It's hard to justify investing in the 4 piston calipers IF you are looking to progress and get faster. IMO they can't outperform the brembos for the same cost.

You can get find them at most places that sell replacement parts since they're factory parts. Ford dealer, rockauto, ebay, etc and they offer both the PP black/red and the 50th anniv black/white versions.

Not sure about other engine/trans/year combos but the swap works on 2015 manual GTs. I've been running them at track days with zero issues and so has another guy in my group. No booster swap on either car.

He's just being another Vorshlag sheep and regurgitating what Terry Fair says as gospel.
