Default Baer Claw Brakes

Hey all-
I think its time to get the spongey-ness out of the mustangs braking, and was wondering everything you guys could tell me about this brake setup. http://rpmoutlet.com/musv8baer.htm
Anything about baer quality, if this kit would be better than the cobra upgrade, along with what you think about this kit would be appreciated.

This is MY opinion:

Those calipers look just like the 2 piston PBRs (except they say baer on them), which are the much cheaperMach1/Cobra calipers. Those baersare aluminum though, so maybe the expense comes from that.Im not sure what the PBRs are made of, some kind of cast material. Otherswise they look almost identical to me...

but...

If you're going to spend that kind of money on 2 piston calipers get this instead: Brembo 4 piston Cobra R front brakes, not too much more and should really improve the braking power...

Yeah, I definately agree with spending the extra money and going with the Cobra R setup. Does anyone know if those brakes will fit under stock 17" GT wheels?

That Baer kit is exactly the same as the Cobra/Mach/Bullit which you can get cheaper here...

I don't think the 4piston calipers will clear the stock 17's

Is the RPM a respectable site. I have looked at there superchargers, and there like $500 dollars cheaper than every were else (which is a good thing), but i was just wonderin if anyone had ever ordered from them and how there experience was with them.
