Brake bias doesn't feel any different. I can still lock up all four wheels (if I didn't have ABS) on-demand, and stopping power is exactly the same as stock would be, since it's limited by tires. The only benefit are the looks (they look nice, but need to be powder coated), easier brake pad swaps, and greater thermal capacity (larger rotors).
Thanks chris_flies. What about brake pedal feel? I’ve read some people switch up to a different MC such as one from a 135. Is this required to get stock pedal feel? I like the way the stock pedal feel is w the OEM brakes and was thinking that this upgrade to multiple pistons from a single will/might affect this.
