Why would u not go with 14 all the way around? You have 1000hp. If you r goin over the top w your engine then why not with the brakes. Not to mention it can't hurt anything. The level of performance needs to match.

I agree 100%. Easy to get moving with 1000hp, might want some serious stopping power to help tame that sucker when needed.

Todd (Vegas69) has a decent setup. Willwoods I think. I was impressed how well his breaks helped reel in all 666 horses pulling PayBack along.

Thanks guys. I will go with the big brakes, I just wanted to get some opinions. I just have one more questions. Is there a big difference from 4 piston to 6 piston?

thanks

Go with the biggest front brake you can fit. Rear isn't near as important.

Todd, do you ever wish you had bigger brakes? I don't recall whether or not you lock up the fronts easily.

I was also going to say that your tire choice is going to dictate how well a car is going to brake.
