What about this brake kit?????
I'am finally adding a Supercharger to my car, so I would think it would be best if I upgrade the brakes too. Right now I'am thinking getting these from stillen. Does anybody have any experience with this kit????

Joel what's going on??? The reason why I can't get a 4 piston big brake kit is because I plan to run at the track once and a while (on slicks), and I don't want to change my brakes every time I want to go.

The Stillen BBK should be good, bro. But have you also looked into getting the 6th gen BBK from Blehmco? It's half the price of the Stillen -- though, I'm not sure if it clears 2000/2001 rims. It'll definitely clear my TE rims and 2002/03 rims, because there's a picture of the BBK with the later 5th gen 6-spoke rims.

Wow, that's pricey. I'm finding I'm less and less a fan of Stillen.

Well Stillen has always been known as $tealin that only sells at full retail, but in this case it's not their fault, Brembo BBK's are pricey.

Your refering to the 2k4 single piston caliper kit??? If so, I looked into it already, but I guess think the twin piston setup would suit me best. And it do also fit under the oem 17's too (seen twice already).

BTW I'am getting new rims, but the oems will be for drag and winter...LOL

Tell me about it, but if it works better than Matt's single piston kit, I'am getting it....
