Default Serious Big Brake Kit for 991 (Crosspost)

Crossposting because PFC Cup Challenge bolt-on Big Brake Kits now have fitments for all 991 models- https://rennlist.com/forums/991-gt3-...pc-racing.html
We all know 991 Cup cars have amazing brakes. This is trickle-down motorsport technology in full-effect.

Beautiful setup! PFC are great brakes for sure.

I've run a few AER events in the past at NJMP. Had a third place in class with two drivers and a borrowed crew (friends in the next pit box).

How do they compare to the AP kits available.

AP are stellar brakes for sure.
PFC are also incredible. This is a full-blown track setup, hence the price point (similar to Brembo GTR).

I know from experience that any team that was running PFC they never had any brake issues. These are tested and proven on the track.

I have sold, installed, and driven on both Essex/AP and PFC brake kits. To me, both brands offer excellent performance and construction method to their own price point.

I'd like to add that both brands are superior to OEM brakes and that both brands are significantly lighter weight than OEM steel brakes.

The Nickel Plating keeps them pretty after hours and hours of track use.
