If you have the need for speed, you also have the need for excellent stopping power. Otherwise, all your power goes to waste when you cannot scrub off the speed enough to move through the corners like a pro. Thankfully, you can count on Wilwood Engineering and our team at Ace Performance Auto to get your car’s braking system into perfect shape. If that sounds like just what you need, take a peek at this guide to learn all about this sweet performance upgrade.
A Look at Wilwood Brake Upgrades
Whether you have a classic hotrod or a modern sports car, Wilwood has the right brake upgrades for you. For starters, they sell disc brake conversion kits for cars stuck in the days of brake drums and shoes.
Plus, they have big brake kits for souped-up sports cars that need a boost in stopping power to go with all the performance upgrades. Beyond that, they have the parts you need to upgrade your calipers, pedals, and everything in between.
Just getting the parts is not enough, however. You need a talented team to install the parts and keep them well-maintained mile after mile – and we can help. At our shop, you can partner with a mechanic skilled in performance upgrades, maintenance, and repair services. We’ll help you create the perfect build to suit your needs, and then perform all the work needed to get your car stopping on a dime every time.
Why Bother Beefing Up Your Brakes
Cars typically come with braking systems that perform well alongside the stock engine output. So, as you increase horsepower and torque, the brakes quickly get outmatched, making it difficult to slow down on demand.
Furthermore, the risk of brake fade increases, especially while driving your car at its limits on the track. When that happens, you might find yourself pushing the brake pedal into the ground without getting the stopping power you need in that moment.
Fortunately, upgrading your braking system with Wilwood parts typically solves all that. You’ll need to work with your auto tech to match your upgrades to the rest of your build. By doing that, you can rest assured that your car’s stopping power will exceed your every expectation. As you continue to do performance upgrades, you may need to revisit your braking system to ensure it keeps up with the changes.
