I would not use most willwoods calipers in a street driven application.. why? becuase all the ones i have seen and rebuilt do not have dust seals incorperated into there design. without dust seals you get more wear on the piston and bore, and rebuilds would be more frequent. good stuff, but i would want dust seals if i was going through the trouble of upgrading my brakes.

There great for a car that would get rebuilt offten... like a race car.
Thats whats cool about all the porsche stuff, you get great quality brakes with all the correct enginering for street and track use.
