Youre thinking too much without reading the thread to learn...

Once you do this upgrade, you will quickly realize that the brake pedal has about 40% of the 100% stock throw available and makes it tough to stop quickly. Makes it difficult to properly bed the rotors and pads as well.

Once the coding was complete (about 10 mins if you know what youre doing) the braking power increases to be considerably more stout than stock. The brakes pedal is responsive from 0-100% and you feel like the $$$ was well spent.

The choice is yours, skip this step, lose braking ability compared to stock and spend the $$ for a downgrade in performance. Or....do it right and reap the benefits of the upgrade.
