Default Bremsport brake kit experience anyone

Hello!
A mate of mine is thinking of getting a 330 mm Bremsport braking kit for his Escort Cos. I think the kit consists of brembo calipers plus disks pads nad brake lines. Anybody has this on his Escort and can give his opinion oon how good the kit is?

Thanks...

If you can stretch just a bit further go for AP Racing Calipers and rotors, they are the best. To stop the cossie properly you will need 6 pots at the front with 356 rotors. The rear can be fitted with 300mm rotors and bells, retaining the original caliper because of the handbrake

AP have got a new 6 pot caliper, the CP7040 which is the bees knees.

I messed around with 330mm and four pots, but never got the stopping power needed with 450+ BHP.

Godspeed supply the above, but Ian is a tad slow at shipping, his quality is very good with not too much messing around fitting.
