I say bigger brakes are needed and I'll put them in after I do my SC add on... why?

Right now, I can make it from a stoplight near my house to the freeway light, reaching about 60 mph. With the supercharger, I might make it 5-10 mph faster, which means I'll need more braking power to handle the increase in speed over the same distance.

Now I don't do much street racing from light to light (actually, I don't do any at all), but I figure that braking ability should rise with horsepower to keep things safe. There's only one thing more important than going fast... being able to stop faster to speed up again in the future.
