Lets see if you did a better job than me wiring them up boss man :headbang: Side note, how much brake fluid do we need for larger calipers? Any difference? If not....how much do we need still. Keep forgetting to check the manual.

When I did a fluid change last it was about 2 bottle of the motul fluid. Not sure how much that will change with the new front calipers, I'll let you know what I use when I do the install.

What exactly are you referring to when you say wiring them up?

The PRL turbo inlet pipe has a larger compressor outlet crossover port at 45mm compared to the OEM 38mm. Vargas matched their turbo to the OEM 38MM, a little massaging got it opened to ~44mm, still need to do some finish sanding.

The goal is to match port as close as possible to eliminate the 7mm step from turbo outlet to crossover Inlet.

I mean the wiring you do with safety wire like i have on my build thread
I'll be honest I was just going to use thread locker and torque to spec? But maybe I should do the safety wire??

I don't believe my brake kit came with the wire and hardware with the wire holes. It was an option. I got mine from TSP.

Really? If it’s two piece (spec 37 kit) the nuts should have 4 holes each. It’s highly recommended for track use you wire them. I did with blue loctite (not red like they want) because it’s just for street use and I wired them

I have to look again, my kit is at my garage. I also emailed TSP to see what they recommend. I'm pretty sure my hardware was solid, I remember reading in the instructions about the wiring but though it was an add on... I'll report back once I get to my garage.
