[QUOTE="Izso, post: 1064570358, member: 2429"] Not PNP la. The custom job to get the bracket done will cost more than the GSR brakes. GSR pistons are larger than the Wira 1.8 ones. The caliper itself isn't that much bigger, but the piston is bigger. More surface area to clamp down on those brake pads man. Makes a helluva difference! And yeah, personally I don't recommend BOT. BOT leaves too much to chance. No it doesn't. Need a custom bracket to hold the caliper in place - meaning you need custom work done to fit them. BOT = bolt on turbo. Meaning you don't touch your internals and all. Use stock then just slap on a turbo with minor mods like oil return line and all. If you go all out, I'd rather you change the pistons to low compression types (perhaps oversize too), fit new cylinder liners to cope with the extra power, possibly consider forged connecting rods (conrods) just in case. If you go the forged piston and conrod path, I saw in PeterJ's evo thread, it'll set you back about 3k-4k. The liner if you go for the decently good one, about 800. Then there's the discussion about port and polishing (PNP) the head, a strong and good quality head gasket, etc. Lots to consider, and that's all before you even consider what turbo to use, turbo manifold, intercooler, pipings, engine management, etc. Are you kidding? They call turbo "fake displacement" for good reason. The kick you'll get from turbo cannot be beaten by NA. The only thing is how good your tuner is. NA will have low end torque (actually depends on how you setup your car too) more than turbo. But turbo will win in the mid-to-high power range for sure. Unless perhaps you want to consider supercharging. That's low end torque all the way which probably is more practical. But mods is similar to turbo, perhaps slightly cheaper. Nah. If I were you, I'd go slow. This month buy the front GSR 23mm ARB then feel how that changes the cars handling. Next month UR 19mm rear ARB then feel again. Then slowly add bit by bit.
