I think BBK's are "break the bank" territory with most setups averaging $2000 with installation.

Alternatives are PowerSlot with larger rotors and a bracket that moves your caliper further out for increased torque.

However, with brakes, just putting something on cuz its bigger doesn't necessarily mean better. Brakes have to have the proper bias from front to rear otherwise you risk throwing the car off "balance" and could probably have your rear swing out from braking into a turn or may cause havoc with the ABS as the fronts may be clamping harder than the rears, etc...

Bottom line, do the research first.
