Max disc width on Boxster non-S Calipers?

Hi guys, I've been away for a long time but I finally have some time to get on with the bug.

I've come up with this crazy idea of using some Ronal wheels which are 5 x 108pcd. In order to do this and still be able to use off-the-shelf discs I have made up some custom hubs. At the moment I have 944 turbo front 4 pot Brembos and 964 (911) C2 2 pot rears to go on the back.

They don't really match up as a set and a friend has offered me some monoblocks from an early non-S boxster. The problem is I don't know what the maximum disc width I can use with these calipers is. Can anyone help so that I can figure out if I can get some discs that will work.

The entire ethos of this conversion is that once it's finished I will be able to just swap discs and pads straight from the shop at the track without having any machining etc needed.

Cheers
