Default I respectfully disagree. Have you ever tried to brake hard from 140mph+ with stock brakes?

Its fvcking scary. Normal driving, yes, I agree with you completely. But braking from high triple digit speeds, Alcons inspire MUCH more confidence in my experience.

Default 163, Stage 1, according to speedo which is not accurate...150 was easy, from 150-163 took forever,

converting Km/h to MPH, hence odd numbers

Default More cooling is better for hard stop from 100+

But if you have slotted vented rotors, you should be as well off as a BBK. You will exert more force to get equal stopping at very high speeds, and it will be noticeable insofar as stopping distance.
