Be careful, you also have to worry the stupid drivers tailgating behind you, whom are not able to stop fast enough than your bbk. My Stoptech 6/4 pot BBK never fail me on street, but I always watch out for the cars behind me. On track, my bbk is ironically unstoppable, get it, lol. Either way, upgrade the bbk was the best investment I ever put on the car, because you can save unsprung weight and stop more efficiently on track, add the cool look rolling on street.

Lol, while I agree with all the physics behind stopping power/ KE/ tire compound, you guys are all forgetting the feeling of huge red BBK the diameter of a prius wheel & tire.
Honestly if I saw those brakes roll up to me I would probably shed a tear due to the beauty.
Great choice of wheels too, really shows of those monsters. This car is a complete package now for sure.

I'll try to find out. I know that the pistons are graduates size, because there's also some function on these calipers where the pressure builds up on light braking first with the smaller pistons, then with increased force, you recruit more of the bigger pistons.

Kinda cool, I wonder how they get them to work like that? The other companies stage pistons for much different reasons.

Phantom edition paint job on the rims is definitely high on the future list. They need a polish now, and if I don't like the post polish maintneance then phantom it is. I just realized I haven't really posted any pics since I started this process so I'll get going on that. I'm also going to do a turbo write up w vids.
