Default Manual or Power brakes

I want a slick street driver that would be at home on the track from time to time. Right now I have a manual disc/drum set-up and I'll be upgrading to rear discs in the future. I can do a complete stock type master/booster combo from CPP or go with a Wilwood aluminum master and braided line combo. Opinions pls

if you can afford the extra weight... id go with a hydraboost setup.... there is no reason to run manual brakes in a car unless you are a weight fanatic.. a car is supposed to be enjouable.. its somthing you take out to get a wide grin and some extra energy... who cares si manual brakes work for some purist.. its about you having a great time...

that for me.. includes not having to wressle the car into submision.. so i have power steering and power brakes.. and a stereo!
