I was thinking about CEC's event sat and 15% off on parts and free install on anything purchased this sat. And was thinking of upgrading my brakes. What kits would be worth the buck and really make a difference at the same time? Im not looking for the lowest price I am looking for the best performance change. Thanks in advance!

 

BBK (brembo)

 

christx997 is right, the Brembo set up is a big improvement aesthetically and performance wise. We've done several sets on Cayennes and they look awesome. Here's some pictures of two MAGNUMS we did with the Brembo package:

 

expected cost on a bbk?>

 

A full Brembo setup for the Cayenne Turbo should run you about $9,700.

 

i'd rather go with PCCB...

 

just get the fronts for half the price, i would think thats all you need.

 

Anyone know if you can just use the brembo drilled rotors and the stock 6 piston calipers?
I know there are aftermarket drilled rotors but they just don't look as nice.
Goal here would be mostly aesthetics.

 

I know Brembo offers two piece solutions for oem calipers on 996 and 997 applications. Not sure if they have them for Cayenne applications.

 

I just talked to Brembo, they just have the BBK GT kits available. No two piece solutions yet. I asked if they had anything in the works and they said it would be the next logical step but he hasn't been getting many calls on it. Most of our Cayenne customers are asking for some much bigger than the factory brakes to fill their big wheels.

 

That is a bit surprising as the aftermarket no-name brands are all over ebay. I would think that that is some indication that there is a market for them to pursue. Maybe they do know and do not want to cannibalize sales of the full kit. After all, from 3 feet away its hard to tell whats a Brembo and whats a stock red caliper. If your not a track day guy, you would want to do what I would which is get the 3 foot view.

 

Maybe because they are all over ebay is the reason. I cant say for sure but I can say this. When there is a market for something and they are aware that there is a market for something, they have listened to us in the past and have put it into production. I think they might offer something down the road, they just don't know it yet. It hink if they start getting more calls on it they will go ahead and put something together especially if the BBK's are not selling.

 

Demand side will drive production here I am sure. I'm not about to start lobbying as I still have silver calipers . Now what I really need is an epoxy/powercoat caliper exchange so that the poor guys stuck with silver or black are not waiting 2 weeks with their cars on stands.

 

I might be able to help you out with that. Why dont you send me an email so we can discuss this further.
