Lines are something you will make with AN4 braided pieces (I can measure mine for reference) plus fittings/ends for the chassis and caliper side. Then you'll need some pads, figure $200 for both depending how fancy of a pad you get. My math says you'll be there for a grand or a little less.How they stack up:If you're running them on the street, it's really just bling. If you can lock up now, you won't lock up any different with big brakes whether they are 4 or 6 piston.If you're track driving, you do need the Cobra rears at minimum with the Cobra MC on a early SN, not sure if the MC is different in the Hydroboost models. Brake modulation and threshold braking feel are much improved, pads make a lot of difference in this as well, so there's no sense in spending thousands on a brake setup then going with cheap part store pads. I would rather spend zero on the brake setup, and get some awesome pads for performance.Anyway, I really like the Wilwood setup. Braking is predictable, pads are a breeze to swap with the bridgebolt design, and the calipers have help up well in the 2-3 seasons I've run them. Pads are cheaper than for OEM calipers and have a lot more meat on them, so they last longr.</blockquote>
