Message	first off you must admit the fact that the stock brakes can -over time- lock up the front wheels. You and i both know you cant stop somthing moving the speed and the mass of the wheel/tire/rotor anywhere near instantaneously without running into a VERY sturdy wall or something. The new brake kit can exert more stoping force thereby decelerating the wheels quicker. Even under braking under controlled mini-abs skids, keep in mind the wheel is decelerating to 0, not instantaneously stopping, which leaves room for improvement.
