2011 canadian Brembo 5.0 - Equivalent to the track model?

I'm currently shopping for a 2011 5.0, and am not 100% clear on the canadian Brembo version. The 2011 US Brembo 5.0 is apparently equivalent to the 2010 Track pack with upgraded suspension, what about the canadian one?

As far as I know there is no difference from the U.S and Canadian versions. Www.brembo50.com has some good info.

How can I visually check if the Brembo has different lower control arms or suspension?

It will have the upgraded arms but in my opinion they aren't much of an upgrade. They look the same with thin black plates riveted on the inside. Mine had them and it still wheel hopped.

They do work well as far as handling goes with the upgraded bushings go. My friend that tracks his 07 GT has them installed, after taking a step back from Griggs lower arms. They work nice in combo with the relocation brackets that he got with the Griggs arms.

Visually you aren't going to be able to identify them. Only way I know of would be to have a dealer parts guy run the VIN to see which ones are on the car.
