Default bigger brake calipers?
i have a 98 s70 t5 (280mm rotors) and i want to upgrade braking- but dont want to drop $900-2000 on rotors and calipers (big brake kits).

what i really want to know is- are there any 2-4 piston volvo brake calipers that could easily be bolted on?

i do like the kit- but im not so worried about rotors before calipers... when i first got the car the caliper (right) was seized up, and when i replaced it- i just kinda feel in love with the thought of multi piston calipers... any thoughts there?
