Damn, here I've been thinking the A and M calipers were cast iron and not steel. So what do I know. Anyway, the first 911 turbo aka 930 also used the S calipers.
My buddy who has the 914, 935 and GT1 said the S doesn't flex worth noticing, but the floor in front of the pedal cluster does, so brace the master cylinder. With his 230 HP he does not find anything bigger than the S caliper is really beneficial, and he has tried several of his bigger sets.
