Ken, has anyone told these guys that the great Mr. Bugatti stated that, his cars were real cars and real cars are designed to go, not stop.

That company, "Revolution"... I think it used to be called "Precision"... The links on the site look exactly the same, and the PDF with all the "kits" in it is exactly the same too... I remember calling up precision about 4 years ago, back when I nearly sunk about $4,000 into big brakes... Then I woke up and spent $110 on all new Hawk HPS pads... Those alone did an AMAZING improvment over subaru pads. And now, 3-4 years later, they are still stopping with a purpose!!

He is right, unless you are seriously tracking the car and have tried all different kinds of pads, fluid, and replaced all factory calipers only to find your brakes still fade, is a BBK worth it. Not to mention, you are still limited to your tires. If you car hit the brakes and initiate your ABS, a BBK will make no difference as your tires are your limiting factor, not your brakes
