Default Poll: How many of you have increased power without upgrading brakes?
Just trying to figure out how many are running high HP levels with stock braking system.

Me, stockers are good enough for one or two stops. Stoptechs are on the list.

Default Me :-D I don't drive my car any faster fortunately than if it were stock, upto the speed limit is
all I need. Stock brakes have worked just fine so far, but I am going to be getting brake X.

Default Me.
No big brakes on my list...track time in this car will be limited. I don't think I exactly qualify as "high horsepower" (stage 1).

Default What's the point of big brakes if you don't go to the track?
Just because something <i>could</i> work doesn't mean it's not rice.
