Were the rear Epytec brackets bolt on i.e no milling required of the Boxster callipers?

Nice! I am about to do this install myself. What adapters did you use? Also, did you flip the link pipe on the Porsche callipers?

I’ll get the details from the guy I purchased them from and get back to you. They came with the brackets and extended rear hoses

Any luck bud? Definitely interested for the longer term

This is the reply from Bradz from whom I purchased the calipers - he has posted on the first page of the thread.

Are your front wheels original CS or CSL items? Did you require spacers for the front calipers?

Hi
I have exactly the same set up with OEM CSL wheels and have 10mm spacers.
You would get away with 5mm but the 10mm spacers have the concentric hub
