Upgrading to Turbo brakes on my C4
 
Want to know if anybody has done this upgrade to there 996. What is the cost of the Turbo brakes and if Porsche sells a kit for it?

won't work unless u swap the wheel carriers. if only reason for upgrade is for look then Boxster S brake will work on ur car.

how much do Boxster S brakes cost?

Worthless idea IMHO, I thought the C4S had Turbo brakes no? If you go with anything put brembos or get a deal on Ceramics..

Yes C4S has Turbo brakes, C4 does not. Standard 996 brakes. The Boxster S calipers which are EXACTLY the same as you have now, just red in color cost about $800 new and about $600 new. Now your silver C4 calipers are actually going for more, about $800 used. I would see if you can find a Porsche shop that may swap you. you may get lucky....

Then again, you can always paint yours, or I would get a used black set and paint them....Then you can keep your silver calipers if you want to.

Sorry always think C4 & S ....I painted mine yellow...
