In between watching the crummy coverage on CBS of the San Marino Grand Prix, I installed Boxster monoblock brakes on the 914.

I've done the 986 F & R caliper install on 2 sixes last month, with the 19mm mc...with a noticeable braking improvement. I know of one 9146 with 986 rear calipers all-around, and the owner (Dave @ TRE) says it's the best set up for his street/ track car. I still prefer the F and R set-up. I'll prolly go to the tilton or wilwood proportioning valve next.
