6 Pot Vs 4 Pot

[FPV6]

Clearly bigger discs, pads and 6 pistons to push force will stop better then 4 pot set up on the same rubber and clearly the 6 pot will take longer to over heat over the 4 pot

but the question remains cold start same ruber whats the difference?

No both the 4 pot and 6 pot have 355 mm rotors

This is true.

For a one off emergency stop, there is stuff all between them.

Front tyres make the biggest difference in stopping distance.

The 355mm Rotor size between the 4 and 6 pot is the same and even on the track for 5 laps at a time, there is stuff all difference.

I've been using 4 pots on the circuit for years.

Changing from street tyres/pads to circuit pads and slicks makes a MASSIVE difference.

FAR bigger difference than piston number.

Nah unfortunately there not the same 335x32mm front rotors with four-piston calipers and 328x26mm rear rotors with single-piston calipers and 355 x 32mm 6 piston calipers up front and 330 x 28mm 4 piston calipers in the rear..

Ive never seen a comparison for what your asking mate good luck with it

[FPV6]

no there isnt lol now ill try manual box over Auto that will be scarce to lol

What are you on about?

Both the Brembo 4 and 6 piston rotors are the same 355mm Rotor diameter.

To answer the original question, there would be no difference between the 6 and 4 pots for stopping distance.

Both are strong enough to activate the ABS.

The weakest link is the friction between the road and tyre.

you could be right but acording to this review, it says other wise lol

this would help lol
