I'm using willwood four pots on the front and vw golf disk conversion on the back. Car never had a problem :) it's a 1400 rally car not an xe but they would easly stop xe build to. I'm also running a bias pedal box :)

V6 (288mm) brakes are cheap enough, fit under most 15" wheels and work well..

If weight bothers you then youve got to go for 4pots.
V6/Turbo brakes work well but weigh about the same as a 1400 engine! lol
