Brake line upgrade is the best bang for the buck brake upgrade you can do. With no other mods the lines alone can pull double digits off your stopping distance, and make the difference between a trip to the body shop or not.

This is something i have been considering too. What does every one think about the stock calipers? I imagine they are two piston but I haven't relly looked.
Is it reasonable to just do the parts like Scream, or is it worth the money to do a complete kit upgrade? Baer's Eradispeed kits are 1000 per axle and Brembos are about 2000, but brembo's base kit has better calipers than the baer.
Personally if the stock calipers will do the job then mights as well just upgrade around them. maybe just paint them to clean up the look.
