Willwoods are billet and are a bit too high maintainence for use on the roads - a bit of salt in them will make a bit of a mess after a while.

Reylands are modified AP Racing calipers with the right disks for your setup and seem to be a good choice for fast road cars.

No reason why you couldn't do that. You would need to find somone who had done that before, be able to product your own drawings of the part or find somone willing to design the brackets you need. They would be pretty simple to do though and should be fairly in-expensive to make up.

No idea on the price of the Reyland setup. In fact, Reyland might even be able to help making up some adaptors for Porsche calipers...

They're just not very good, they've been bled up properly but they still don't work well.
