6 Piston Calipers
So, I've been reading that the CTS-V 6 Piston front calipers will fit our SS. Has anyone on here done that swap here?

Were those 6 piston? I've been reading that the 2016 cars got a slightly smaller brake package since the car is 200lb lighter and unsprung weight makes the most impact on performance.

I'm not sure, didn't 2010 and up camaro SS come with 6 piston brakes up front stock? I'm just wondering if it would be cheaper to switch to a later years big brake package than the 2016 6 piston brake setup from GM, for 2k.

GM parts direct has them for roughly $2,200.
That'll probably be your cheaper option

Finding a car at a wreckers is the best bet. Be it a Camaro or Caddy
