just wondering your thoughts on who to go with for better brakes and handling. i have an rt 6spd with basic bolt ons i.e. cat back and intake w/ tune. ive noticed that ol' girl gets up rather nice but when the usual careless idiot pulls out, i need a little more stopping power. are the srt8 brakes worth the money or aftermarket? as far as handling, i'm not going to race the car (legally) so full coilovers are unnecessary. i'm thinking drop springs with bilstein shocks. any thoughts on this set up as well as anything i've left out?

Aftermarket Brembo's are about $4k but they will stop you very quickly.

i just installed the C & L CAI and predator tune today. holy sh#@ it woke this car up! i mean goodmornin horsepower!! anyway, after beating on it for a bit, i really realize how bad the suspension is on these things. well, it's not bad...just could be stiffer. what's your take on the eibach lowering springs and aftermarket shocks? that should make power deliver a bit more smooth right? are these tower braces for the front and rear worth it? anything should help. my car tucks it's tail and runs under full throttle. very very bad body roll when the go pedal is floored.
