Brake upgrade for 2007 bf turbo

[Killerxr6turbo]

Hey everyone just bought xr6 turbo 2007 it has standard rotor size on car am interested for the best package for callipers pads n rotors guys at v sports quoted the 6 piston calliper and slotted rotors at 2899 bit too steep willing to pay that amount but interested if I can get something with just as good quality or slightly less on a budget of 1000 car has 270 kW tune looking to work engine shortly to hopefully 400 rwkw so need good brakes

You should be able to get a set of wrecked 4 pot brembos for a bit less than that.  Even if it is just the fronts.  IIRC the xrt's came with a slightly larger brake combo anyway.  If you're going to get reliable parts for this build plus a tune to take it to 400 I dare say you'll be pushing things like the factory turbo to it's limit, so.. new turbo?

Reason I ask that, if you're spending that much coin to do the build right I wouldn't be cheaping out on the brakes at that point.   That's just me

Need at least 18s for brembos too fit, even then some 18s don't fit all depends on the style of the wheel

And it's optimistic to think you'll find an 18 you like that will fit.  Likely need a 19. I run 20's over 6 pot.
