Default Wilwood 4 pot vs Subaru 4 pot

Looking for any input one may have comparing these two options. What I have come up w/ thus far:

1) the Wilwood dynalites (w/ a perrin bracket) will fit the wrx oe (6.5") wheel, the Subaru won't (although someone thought a simple 3mm spacer would allow for it).

2) the Wilwood is lighter (billet) ~ 2.5 lbs, not sure on weight of Subaru-anyone?

3) pad selection, while Wilwood has some choices- my first choice (Endless) is not available, but is four Subaru

4) price- $599 for Wilwood, includes calipers, ss lines, pads and bracket
-$635 for Subaru, includes calipers, pads

What about performance between the two? There was a formula to calculate clamping force if piston diameters were known- I think.

Any input welcome.

Thanks
