Forged 4POT caliper w/ 13" x 1.25" rotors (directionally vaned) ~ $1300retail
Billet 6POT caliper w/ 13" x 1.25" rotors (directionally vaned) ~ $1600retail
the 4 pot he uses for this car has the same overall piston diameter as the 6 piston and uses the same pads so the overall performance should be the same.
