[QUOTE="Black Cobra '99, post: 16279173, member: 138833"] Most people on SVTP upgrade to the 13/14 setup if at all, you'll find more info regarding this on TMO. Anyways, I've researched this extensively and the S550 upgrade is a really good upgrade. You'll increase stopping power but you might get a slightly longer pedal. You can go even crazier and get the GT350 setup, full kit on FTBR. If you are upgrading to any of these I recommend upgrading the rear to the 13/14 setup to keep the car balanced. One last thing, you don't need them. Unless you are taking your car to HPDE events or road racing, the stock brakes are more than enough. The benefit of those upgrades is so they last longer without overheating, stopping power doesn't really matter because you are limited by the tires and the stock brakes can lock up the tires with ease.
