brake upgrade question

I know I have seen stuff on this before but cant find it. Im wondering how easy or hard it would be to fit stock porsche 996 brakes to a TT. My boss has his stock brakes off his car with like 10 miles on them lol.

Boxster calipers bolt right up I believe.

l88m22vette did a porsche brake swap I think. Check with him.

Ok. Pretty sure 996 breaks are a little bigger but we will see

Yup, here is my Vortex post: Boxster brake upgrade done

There is a parts/price list and good-size discussion. The 996 Brembos will not bolt onto the PureMS calipers, you would have to go custom (but at that point get a BBK).

Thanks I will check out your thread. They might not bolt right up but even if I have to make some custom mounts it will be wayyyy cheaper than any bbk
