    I’m also interested as my TTRS already has Brembo front calipers. Going from 4 to 6 pistons would be a great improvement.

    The pads will be larger and the extra two pistons will allow for a greater gripping force and shorter stops.

    Same with brake pads but none of it is relevant to the OPs original question.
