Its been a long project, when we developed the regular 8pot calipers, we exceed all the goals we set on the calipers: reliability, brake force, quality. But there was a gap between the regular 8pot and our EVO12, thus the L8, L8 stands for Large 8, this is bigger than typical 8piston calipers, it offers 80% of the EVO12 performance, while being affordable.
The calipers have gather together of 1200hrs on brake dyno, and now its doing real life test, it'll be available to public before August.
Here's some pix, the rotors are the 15.3" bad boys.

Very nice Sam, I hope you get a 16" rotor soon! They would look great my 12 pot calipers.
Keep up the good work buddy!!

we do, the 410mm, about 16.2", but there's no way that they'll fit under the LM's, unless you got some secret project :)

I need to work on that part, I swear I got them, but I can't find them
more specs and details please :nyah:
the calipers should weight in around 2.8kg or so, the manufacturing part is just like all our calipers, 5000tons cold forged, stainless steel pistons in sequential sizes depends on applications.
I'm gonna work on getting the details ASAP.

We've tried 410mm on 19" LM, it won't clear, even 20" LMs are too tight for comfort, but 20" new ACS rims will clear no problem and look bad ass.
do you have rear kits as well, and what are the prices?
evo12,
L8,

we sure got rear, but rear never use anything bigger than L6, unless you got a custom master cylinder and know how big of pistons you can push.
This is typically our biggest at rear:
388mm (15.3") with L6 caliper:

The reference point is not too good, the L6 is same size as AP's big 4 and slightly smaller than the GT, even the 8pot can look small when its used on 16.4" rotors.
price?
It'll be $3600-3800 depends on application for a standard 15.3" rotors.
