murf, you already have 294mm brakes, not worth the cash to upgrade to 4-pots.

but if you were going to upgrade to some 316mm 3.0 Lib or GTB brakes, i have a set of brand new factory rotors....cheap!
just find some calipers (Kris at Rising Sun Subaru should be able to hook you up)

Two-pots with the same diameter rotor
you will still get the same braking torque applied.
4-pots just put more even pressure on the pads.

i'm unsure if 4pots even fit under those rims either
