I made my own "kit" up using VW Phaeton 360mm x 34mm discs redrilled to 4 x 108, Mitsi Evo calipers and made my own brackets up out of plate alloy.
In the pics you can see the difference in caliper size and pads size.
Took me about 8 hours start to finish to get it all fitted up...

Evo Brembo 4 pots are definately way way bigger than Focus RS Brembo 4 pots - even the piston sizes are bigger. I know as i was comparing them directly side by side a couple of days ago.
Focus RS Brembo look tiny compared to the Evo equivalents.
