Both are a massive improvement over the 247s that you get on slow cars (1.4s, XUDs etc)...surely you've noticed better stopping power from them than your 1.4?
Definitely! First time I pushed the brake I almost went through the window haha, wasn't used to having powerful brakes

Yeah by doing what I wanna do it sounds like it will be around 170bhp so need all the stopping power I need
