Default No. 993t "Big Red" caliper over Euro S8 rotor...

unadorned with cross-drilling or slotting, but with no wet braking problems. In fact, as long as I feed them the right pads, hitting these brakes is like getting caught in a Borg tractor-beam.

However, I do have a BIRA System 2 with red Boxster S calipers laying around. Very nice brakes! Uh, how did you end up with just one caliper? Trying to put together a kit on the cheap? Good man! You will be happy with the BIRA brakes. BTDT.
