lat time i posted pictures of my wilwoods i was criticized that my brakes were "too small" and they looked like they "came out of a cereal box". kind of ridiculous statements considering the OEM setup was good enough and these have other added benefits.

i ended up getting my kit second hand (but never mounted) at a discounted price. the new pads, brake fluid, stainless steel lines, weight reduction, and ease of pad changes was well worth the cost of admission.

Refresh your stock brakes, take the money you save and do a couple DE days to learn how well they work.

Running R compounds with a stock NA I've never needed more brakes.....now more motor....
