it's pretty much the same other than that...
i can't fathom that a BBK will give u worst braking than stock..
but i know what u know, and i need to do some more research so u have the benifit of the doubt ... but i'm still going to get one 
i repped u for ur contribution ... thanks. |
I just want to point out real quick that the braking systems on many modified cars are actually the weakest points, even WITH aftermarket kits. MANY modified cars can actually take longer to stop than with the stock system. Obviously, this is not the case with all cars, but I would think it has a lot to do with the increased rotational mass, but that's just a guess. This information actually came from Sport Compact Magazine's "The Truth About Mods" issue, where they talked to aftermarket brake manufacturers.
