I almost forgot to mention the fact that you lose 9 lbs of unsprung weight at each corner with those brakes too. Someone had also mentioned a part about the wheels on the GT2 being solid..they're hollow, just like on the Turbo. The C4S does have a wheel on it that looks like the Turbo ones, but are actually solid. While on the differences of wheels, the GT2 wheels look exactly like the Turbo ones, but are .5 in. wider on the fronts and 1.0 in. wider on the rears. Yes, I know my Porsches.

PCCB saves 7lbs per corner of UNSPRUNG weight.

Who is WE?
PCCB = Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes

unsprung weight is everything that is not held up by the suspension: wheels, brakes, axles, etc.

We = my family. we got our used GT2 a few months ago. I have put about 1000 miles on it including a track day at Buttonwillow.
