Hi Clint,

I have the pics and details for the install, but have not had any time to put the article together ... 2 small kids take up ALL my time right now

I'll get the article to Zen when I finish it.

The brakes are frikin awesome ... what can I say ... I can brake so hard that my glasses come off my face and land in my lap (the 235/18 fronts probably have something to do with that). With my dual M/C, balance bar setup, I can adjust the bias via a dial on the dash to lock the fronts only all the way to locking up the rears only ... I have total brake bias control, and the pedal feels good, not too hard or too soft.

I can lock up all 4 brakes at 100 mph (I won't try that again !). 5 HARD stops from 70 mph to 0 done consecutively heat the brakes up a tad ... I can get out of the car after these stops and all 4 calipers are warm to the touch, the rotors I can touch for about 5 seconds before I have to take my fingers off.

I just finished installing my dry sump setup and am really looking forward to some track days with Porsches .. will give another update then.

Later.
