Debacle?!?  Reasoned arguments sprinkled with educated speculation are
not the stuff of "debacles".

You are correct that there have been no *reported* cracking issues
with BIRA brackets.  Lack of reportage does not imply that the design
is adequate.  Only detailed engineering analysis or test-to-failure
can answer that question.

I'm not sure if you're being provacative or careless in your word
choices.  If you have data to put the questions to rest, I'd love to
see them.  I will gladly eat a huge helping of cold crow if the data
turn out to refute my position in the matter.  My only concern, from
the very beginning, is the safe transport of my fellow UrS car
drivers.  If the BIRA stuff can do that equally as well as the
Porsche/Audi-designed stuff, cool.  If not, then folks looking to
upgrade shouldn't be steered in that direction.

It's really just that simple, IMO.

Which is exactly why I chose RS2 brackets and A8L D2 rotors for my
BBK.  Cheap, effective, proven.  ECS?  Avoid.  BIRA?  Unknown,
excessive legalese, slow to get parts, and more expensive.
