BBK 4matic?
I'm in the market to purchase a bbk, leaning towards brembo.. I'd like to use a 13" disc soo my stock 17" wheels fit.. Anyway I've noticed most sites say (excludes 4matic) any1 out there with a bbk that drives a 4matic? Any info/help is apreciated, thank you

Never heard of dct.. The cheap option is ksport but they didn't sound too knowledgeable about there product.. That's a big turn off.. I wish I never purchased a 4matic!

DCT basically just made brackets that allowed regular 204s to skip a couple steps in installing C63 BBKs. They use OEM parts except for that slight modification. As C63 BBKs are not meant for 4matics obviously, then that's why I doubt it would be optimal for you.

I spent all day calling brembo distibutors and MB dealers, talking to techs and no1 can answer what the difference is between 4matic brakes and rwd brakes.. I'm trying to figure out if its something minor like a bracket, that can be fabricated. Out of the 6 people that told me they would call me back with some info, not 1 has called.. Soo doesn't look like I'll be purchasing a bbk.. Not happy!

One of those "Don't look too closely" mods 
Just put stanchions around your car so no one can get close and they won't be able to tell the difference lol. But yeah, sucks how 4matics get screwed on so many suspension/brake mods.

This is a perfect example of why I tell the newbies have a vision/plan for there cars b4 they start modding.. If I knew I was going to mod my car and get into car shows, I would of never purchased a 4matic.. DCT said he would come up with a design for me but he would need 2 get his hands on a 4matic.. But there hard to come across in cali
