The stock brakes master cylinder would probably need to be upgraded with a 4-pistons setup in the front.

not with 4 pistons in the front, provided they are not huge.

that rear kit with an extra 4 pistons would definately add in the need for dual master cylinders though.

Annnnnd... you base that on WHAT, exactly?

The master cylinder needs to move a MASSIVE amount of oil to push 4 pistons; many 4-pistons caliper upgrades needs the master cylinder to be upgraded.

i base that on the tons of people who have upgraded to a true BBK, which almost always contains a 4 piston caliper, without needing to change their master cylinder. rob(4doorgl) got the wilwood sl6 calipers on his gk. 6 pistons, without needing to upgrade his master cylinder.

as long as the dynalites chosen dont have a huge piston bore, it should be fine.

but, webtech doesnt really give any flow details on the stock MC, so i guess i cant be sure.
