That's great but only if you are going to make use of those extra functions. At the end of the day if all you are using is 3 or 4 inputs to an ECU then any ECU regardless of cost will perform the same.

Purchased these from wozza at FCS so thought id have ago at putting them on,
Full front C4 VTS brake setup,
Calipers are the same as the 180, but apparently the discs are bigger (302 x 26mm)
Anyway much bigger than my stock setup, will let the pics do the talking.
So this was my old setup:
Old disc compared to new:
New setup:
New caliper:
The Discs only just fit, and i mean there's like a 5mm gap:
Tiny Old caliper with New bigger caliper:

Are the discs the right offset for a 206?

I'd have thought so
Everything went on perfect, lined up and fit right.

Tried looking for offsett the only difference i can find between the discs is the overall size
With the 180's im sure there will be a gap, with these its very tight they only just fit.

Would using both the C4 calipers and discs with a different offset to the 206 still fit tho??
