It's all pros and cons and in the end you'll have to decide what is best for yourself. Just remember with the 944 comes more stopping power but at a cost in brake and wheel weight.
Your right about the weight deal Superman, im trying to go for the lighter parts if posible. but somtimes the extra weight gains might not be an big deal if your geting more stoping power.
I guess the real questions now are the weight diferances, along with the stoping capabilities of the two. Does any one have this info?
