IMO+1Whether its Brembo, Harrop, AP etc if you spend money to go fast you wanna upgrade your ability to stop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was running 375rwkw for 2 years before I purchased my 6 pot brembos. The brakes werethe best mod I have done! If I ever have another build I would concentrate on Brakes, Suspension then Power. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, everything else is stock. All the safety features like traction and esp operate as normal too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
