Question Brake system

I'm stuck at work without my 944 so I can't check this out. I have changed everything in the front brakes and still have an issue with it pulling to the right. The guy who does most of my work is a racing shop but not a Porsche guy. He thinks the problem may be a that the system is a crossflow system, i.e., right front and left rear on on side of the system, left front and right rear on the other. Does anyone know if this is correct and/or had a similar situation and found a cause besides, rotors, pads, calipers or lines?

Thanks

usually it would be caused by lines collapsed or sticky calipers....have you blown out the lines to make sure they are free of any blockage, and what year is your car, does it have abs like mine, cause it could be part of that as well?

It's not clear what you mean by "pulling to the right". If you're saying that the car pulls to the right under braking then my money is on the alignment not the brakes. If one brake system were functioning better than the other then it would just lock up sooner than the other. Check the toe on the front wheels.
