      The C6 Z06 calipers have the following piston areas:



      Front Caliper - 6 x ø33mm [ø1.30"] Pistons w/ Area = 2565 mm^2 [3.98 in^2]
      Rear Caliper - 4 x ø30mm [ø1.18"] Pistons w/ Area = 1413 mm^2 [2.19 in^2]

      With C6 Z06 brakes front and rear, we normally suggest running a 7/8 to 15/16 bore MC for manual application and a more aggressive "FF" or "GG" CoF rated pad. With hydroboost, we actually detune things somewhat with a 1-1/8 bore MC and less aggressive pad like an "EE" ceramic option unless you need/want the higher temperature ratings associated with more track friendly pad compounds. I don't remember the exact piston area of the Baer 6P...I think it was a little bigger at something near 4.5 sq. inches...but don't hold me to that. Hopefully a Baer distributor or someone who knows the piston sizes and area will chime in.
