331mm TEN pots!
You're going to park it on it's nose
Yes but 10 is more than 6 so if you're not driving that hard at all and just want bragging rights 10 is betterThe effect of 10 pots is not ti directly increase the bracking force.
It gives a far more even support to the back face of the pad however, so the force from the pots is applied more evenly across the area of the pad.

Ah, but F1 also restrict induction, no turbos, does that mean that all turbo cars are 'overkill?'10 pistons = overkill: Article 11.2.3 of FIA's F1 redulations state: "No more than one caliper, with a maximum of six pistons, is permitted on each wheel."

If 6 is enough for F1, it's enough for a 500.
Perhaps you'd be better off investing £5000 in carbon discs instead?
I was joking 4 pots would be more than enough for all but the most extreme applications anyway10 pistons = overkill: Article 11.2.3 of FIA's F1 redulations state: "No more than one caliper, with a maximum of six pistons, is permitted on each wheel."
