For road use only, i would go for the AP 4 pot 330mm kit as even on track events this will suffice
The 6 pots are a bit "overkill" but AFAIK there is no need to change the master cylnder.

Question

is the thickness of the hub on the prodrive kit and the AP 4 pot 330 mm kit the same?
i.e. is the length of the studs gonna be the same... for wheel security?

also, are the fluid pressures correct on the APs?
I understand that they are for the Prodrive calipers, but is there a compromise on the AP 4 pots?
