Brake upgrade question
 
My new Hurricaine comes with GM metric calipers and 11 inch rotors. Has anyone done the upgrade to wilwood? How much difference did you feel and was it worth the money? I do race these cars and I have already spent a lot of money on porterfield race compound pads for the GM stuff that seem to work pretty good but now is the time to do the upgrade so I can get a credit for my other calipers.

I did a Wilwood upgrade on the fronts. I have 11" Grenada vented rotors and had Chevy S-10 Calipers. There is a noticable difference. I also run the Porterfield R4S pads, front and back.
