PCCB (R)

[clubsport]

Just reading about the new 2005 911 turbo S,

"Standard equipment on the 911 Turbo S includes further developed Porsche ceramic composite brakes (PCCB(R)). The internally vented ceramic discs have a diameter of 13.78 inches both frint and back The front brakes use 6 piston monobloc fixed calipers rather than the 4 piston version used on the standard 911 turbo".

This is the first time I have heard any revision to the
PCCB btraking system...is this evolution or are they allowing us to beleive they didn't get it right the first time??

Reading it, I thought the PCCB(R) was the interesting part...as in (R) = revised? re-designed?
I wondered if they had altered the composition of the brake discs or pads?
Agree on the 6 pot calipers, that was merely part of the text and not the part that intrigued me.

I thought that at first JC,,,but was wondering what they alluded to with the "further developed" part of the text? Porsche's words not mine
