Default Prodrive alcon calipers Vs oem 4 pot

Purchased a set of prodrive Alcon calipers, discs and pads recently, for my GB270,..WOW... the difference in Braking, from the standard 4 pots is...Amazing... So much more "feel" on the peddle,... and a much better response when hot, ..no fade....

I have these on my STi. They are the best modification I've made to my car, by some distance!

Did you go for the 343mm or 365mm disc?
