4 wheel disc conversion...

Is there such a possibility for our cars??? Does Aem make a conversion kit??? I really need an upgraded disc converison cause I will be installing a turbo in the spring. I heard that the 1.6 el (Canada) is a possible contender, but is this true... if so what do I need to make the swap successful? Has anyone done this already? Thanks!

RedDragon333 will become famous soon enough
AEM does not have one yet, they are in the making but as of yet the only way to get 4wheel disc brakes would be take the rear ones off of an SI and convert yours to the same set up, itll be pricy but not too bad, you wont get huge rotors or anything yet but in time you will. IM actually considering the SI conversion right now with a friend of mine at my Honda Dealership, i can get parts cheap so holla if you need something. Start with AEMs or WIllwood big rotor conversion for the front i did it and its amazing i got AEMs big 12in rotor with 2000 SI calipers for more coverage and its awesome! Hope this helps
