To add to what Chicane said. The Superlite 4 piston IS (I think) the top-of-the-line Wilwood rear caliper, pricewise. I would guess it is pretty comparable with whatever anybody else has to offer (you can only put so much brake on the rear anyway).
Where things get a bit cloudy is the 6-piston front calipers. The Superlite 6 is almost the bottom of the Wilwood 6-piston line (I think the GN6 is cheaper, but I don't know if they still offer it anymore). Above that, you have the TC caliper (~$750/piece), Integra 6R (~$1800/piece), the Prolite (~$2700/piece), and the STR (~$3800/piece). So, basically, Wilwood is using one of thier cheapest 6-piston calipers to make their kits from (not saying they're a bad caliper at all, in fact, that's what I'll be using).

The others
Baer: I don't have any tech here (I don't know their price for just the calipers)
Alcon: Imported (very expensive just for that reson)
Brembo: Imported (same here)
AP: Imported
