Default Project mu BBK differences.

I am looking to get their 4piston/4apd front BBK for my car. However, There are two models:
- forged sport
- Racing 4

Beside the forged and billet construction, what are the differences? They have the same piston size and look pretty much the same? Is there really performance gain for the extra $1000?

forged sport


racing 4

Maybe bigger pads? Either way they be GayDM tite yo.

I would just buy some quality brakes without the GayDM markup.

that is the difference...one is a forged caliper, one is a billet caliper

your brembo has far better support as far as pad replacement, rotor replacement

The only difference I can see (other than what Z1 pointed out) is the forged caliper is around 16mm slimmer for better wheel configuration.
