Caught the Bug
You lost me here..... Brag much?
In case you lost focus, I was talking about the TF Big Brake Kit. You know the one for a JK. The one that you no longer run, what due to your Dynatrac setup. Not a viper, not a Benz, not an SRT8 anything. You are comparing apples to oranges here aren't you?
My POINT was that saying that a big brake system doesn't work is plain silly. Every credible performance manufacturer and performance tuner on the planet uses the larger rotor, caliper and related master cylinder to try to improve a vehicles stopping ability. Does it turn our JK into some track worthy race rig where you can out stop vettes and Porsches? No...clearly not and I never claimed such insanity. HOWEVER starting from the factory braking system as the comparative benchmark the bar isn't set exactly to the stars and beyond. I'm clearly not a TF fanboy but that one system does significantly (again subjective) improve stopping ability. It does not magically shed 80lbs of rotating mass per wheel off our JK's nor does it have the abilities of a 15" carbon ceramic rotor with an 8 piston Alcon caliper but it's nothing to sneeze at for less than $1k. Maybe if your eyeballs aren't being yanked out of your skull with 3g's of supernatural stopping whizbang force you're not satisfied...that's fine too. You would rather spend $1k somewhere else. Cool.
