What’s the benefit over a Baer or Wilwood six piston set up?

hes driving the car so I'm assuming one pair (or both) is tied into his hydraulic parking brake setup for locking the rear wheels up in a drift.


Btw...what new motor is he going with? Something non Windsor?

He's using them for a hydraulic e brake for drifting.

Could also be used to increase braking power in the rear. I'd imagine it would heat up the rear rotor pretty quick.

I can't see it being better than a Baer or Wilwood set up.... but it's a lot cheaper.

The Baer setup actually didn't have a parking brake setup. I don't believe Wilwood does either which is why a lot of high end rear brake setups use another caliper for the handbrake, or an internal rotor drum brake
