Default Brembo Conversion ???

I've been thinking of doing a front two caliper Brembo conversion on my "03. My question is the feel of the brakes better? Can the braking be controlled better? I can lock up mine now easily. Also I can get my front wheel hopping and locking at the same time (sounds like a dance move). Anyone do the conversion and notice better braking control?

I noticed better braking control. More braking power so it will lock up easier if you want. All in all it stops quicker. I thought the stock calipers really lacked braking power. I don't feel that way about the Brembo's.

I rebuilt and changed the fluid in mine. I can lock up my front end easily with the stock '03 ones. To easy. I need some that I can control better.
