Real-world improvement,or just cool looks?

If you say so, all I know is that there's a stupid old asian lady somewhere in Honolulu right now that is still alive to ponder her mortality because I was able to stop VERY quickly after she decided she wanted to go across the street without considering that there may be an element of danger in doing so without looking. In the same-case scenario with my stock brakes, she would have been a smear on the tarmac.
Its not the drills or slots that stop you, its the clamping force of the calipers. I'll take four pistons over one all day long!

Here it was a pair of young bears and my daily driver. I missed one and touched the other(rt 519 Hunterdon county, NJ) It was bad enough with the deer!! Now I have these to contend with! I'm upgrading the disk in the Cuda as soon as I can find the parts. By the way, the one I grazed caused no damage other then the brown spot on the road and my car seat.
