97 impreza OBS with ABS. will 1993 Legacy 2 pot calipers fit? would the 2 pot calipers be better than my stock 1 pot?

 

and why are 2 better?

Spreads the pressure out across the pad so you get greater surface area that receives the pressure. Basically there is a greater surface are for those two slightly smaller pistons than there is for just the one slightly larger piston.

cool thanks, just like # of valves per cylinder!

Eh?

 

The big difference is that one-pot uses a 260mm disc and the two pots work on 277mm.

You'll have to see if your hubs have the same caliper mounting tabs. There is a difference between my 96 base Impreza and 98RS.
