But having better brakes is a performance upgrade. If you are on the track the quicker you can slow your car the later you can leave your braking. You then can get back into the power sooner with less loss of lap times. However the ultimate upgrade is like what GM has done to his SPG. If I had 18" wheels and a few grand lying around I would love to put huge brakes on, however I'll just stick with my upgraded 9000 brakes on my SPG.
