Any suggestions?
So far, I've seen the following options:
(1) RUF CTR Brake Kit
(2) Brembo
(3) 993 Big Reds
I know the topic has been discussed, but I can't really get the benefits or disadvantage of each option.
I really wanna focus on how each will affect the handling and braking of my car, so for discussion sake, let's focus less on value for money.
What do you all think? Thanks!

993 Big Reds are Brembos - The Big Reds have four pistons in both front and rear calipers.
Brembo also makes large calipers, which I believe are the Grand Prix 6 or 8 pistons in the front and 4 pistons in the rears.
I am not familar with the RUF CTR brakes...
Some of the RWB guys use Stop Tech on the 964/930/993 cars ....

I believe they make a kit like this for the 930's

The primary functional difference between stock 930 brakes and big reds, or even the bigger brembos, is the ability to absorb and dissipate heat (avoiding fade), which becomes an issue under repeated braking from high speed. For street driving the stock 930 brakes are very good. You can lock up your fronts very readily, whereby your stopping power is dictated by your skill in bringing the brakes to threshold and the stickiness of your tires. However, from an aesthetic standpoint the big reds are hard to beat.
