My basic question is, which is better? Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) are half the weight of gray cast iron, equating to a savings of 36.3lbs. The pistons feature a ceramic heat shield said to be 2.5 times more effective than F1 titanium shields. Porsche is so confident in the PCCB that it endorses a 187,000 service life for the discs. I remember reading somewhere that on Porsche this PCCB is around a $10,000 option. Is this the best braking system around for $10,000 or can $10,000 buy a better braking system from Brembo or other type of high performence brake manufacturer? Any additional information people might have on brakes would be appreciated. I'm currently in the market for some new discs and pads. Though I doubt the ease of aquiring PCCB for use in other cars it sounds interesting. Any brakes out there that equal or surpass PCCB that is available for purchase?
