Gen II PCCB are superior on all accounts to PCCB Gen 1, which I have on my GT2 and believe are great brakes. . .

Worth validating info but the person I speaking to was a race engineer at tech9 when they won the British GT championship's, he now works for Porsche...
Was stood under a GT3 and Turbo for about 2 hours last night whilst he amazed me with his knowledge..

I'm going PCCB on the RS.....
My thinking is, that the steel ones will start to crack after the 1st few trackdays, and thus will need replacing pretty soon (around £2.5k) so that's money towards the PCCB's.
This, and the fact that i have some weird faith, in that Porsche know they Fu**ed up on the 1st gen of PCCB's, and they know that they will have to make sure the new version is a damned sight better..
I am hoping the performance gains will be worth the money for sure....
