I think that the Mito and the 159 have different calipers. The one from a 159 are bigger...

Anyway, what is the size of the disks?

These are from the Mito ( you are right ! ). The disks are 305 mm.

Are they "plug and play"?

I mean, you did not had to use any extras brackets or any other mod if I am right?

its almost plug and play. I need to use other brackets ( specially made ). And because i have 17"wheels didnt need any spacers.

Nice Spider!

Can you tell me the size of your intercooler? I'm thinking og getting a front mounted bigger intercooler as well.

Nice brakes. Are the pistons on the Mito caliper is slightly bigger than on a 3L GTV/GTA 305mm caliper? seems so at least.

My advice,

you do not need a bigger intercooler if you still have the T25.

The OMP one is just fine until 250 bhp.

About the calipers,

yes they are bigger!The pads also.

Way better that the GTV/GTA/Fiat Coupe/ etc..

hmm..

Well I already have the GTA 305mm brembos, so will use them first. If Im not satisfyed, I will jump to 330mm...

If you already have 4pots in your GTV there is no reason to bother.. :thumbsup:

Did you measure the car on the dyno? What is the turbocharger and at what max pressure is set?

Is your previous brake calipers from BMW e38?
