Nice kit. This looks like a great budget BBK for thos wanting to fill out their rims more. I've ridden in a car with the gold coast bbk which is a great budget BBK as well. The Porsche caliper option looks like a cool budget alternative to the Wilwood kit as well. I'm interest to see how that pans out.
I'm personally interested in a kit Using 4 pots that will clear 15 inch TDR wheels. I may end up having to make something myself as what I want is super Niche'.
This is interesting
See below for 325mm 2 piece rotor weight
Someone please chime in about the OEM front rotor weight - I've read 14.5 lbs but I do not know that for certain
Also to correct an earlier post made about the rotor hats - the coating is anodize, NOT powder coating
I like this brake kit. Its good that people are putting in the R&D to develop more options for this platform. R&D is basically unpaid and it takes time to get your money back.
What I would like to see is BBK that will fit behind a 16" rim. I don't think this kit will fit with a 325mm rotor. My estimation would be around a 315mm maximum rotor diameter depending on the caliper.
My Wilwood BBK fits behind 16 in wheels. I wouldn't be surprised if this kit fits behind 16s also because the OEM caliper is very low profile in terms of diameter.

That is an overall diameter difference of 15 mm. So only about 7.5 mm difference in terms of wheel clearance. I have more clearance than that between my caliper and wheell. And because the OEM caliper is much lower profile, I will bet money that this whoosh kit clears 16-inch wheels.

I agree
this looks like a 3 lbs per side weight savings going to this 325mm rotor as well. I'll have to weigh the bracket and half the attachment hardware to find the actual weight savings per side
Josh Jackson weighed his new OEM size front PowerStop slotted rotors which are 15lbs each
If you mean about warranty, I have no idea at this point. We are in the fitment / testing stage
I can assure fitment and working as described 100% but rotor warping and things like that are tough to answer at this point. I'd like to get past fitting, wheel size confirmations, and some testing before that discussion is finalized
