Big Brake Kits exceed stock performance in two areas; larger rotors increase heat dissipation and stiffer calipers and stainless steel lines reduce system compliance.
The key, however, is to increase heat dissipation and reduce compliance without upsetting the stock front to rear brake torque ratios. If the brake upgrade you select adds too much front torque (as many do), you reduce your car's ability to utilize the traction capacity of all of the tires to the maximum practical extent (even on ABS equipped cars) and you therefore create performance sacrifices. In addition, too many or too large of pistons will make the brake pedal much more difficult to modulate, which limits a driver's control of brake input on the racetrack.
Advantages of StopTech over other brake upgrades include: Shorter Stopping Distances, Better Brake Modulation, Firmer Brake Pedal, and Less Brake Fade.
Feature Benefit Summary:
- Balanced Brake Upgrades™ with optimum brake bias offer the shortest stopping distance with the best pedal feel.
- Our patented AeroRotors with the best airflow available result in better cooling, less fade and longer rotor and pad life.
- The stiffest aftermarket calipers with patented bridge result in better clamping under hard braking and less pad taper.
- Track testing of new applications ensures optimum performance.
All parts are bench tested prior to shipment. Each caliper is 100% pressure tested to 2800 psi. Every brake line is 100% pressure tested to 4500 psi. Every assembled two-piece rotor is tested for runout. Hats and brackets are made by StopTech to exacting standards on our own CNC machines. Since StopTech has complete control over our entire design and manufacturing process, we are able to deliver completely integrated kits with a very high standard of quality.
