What sets one brake setup apart from another?

The only significant difference is going to be heat capacity and clamping force. The larger 6-piston Brembo's or StopTech's are going to have a higher clamping force which means more

The only significant difference is going to be heat capacity and clamping force. The larger 6-piston Brembo's or StopTech's are going to have a higher clamping force which means more stopping power when using large sticky tires. Honestly though I think the Akebono calipers are going to be more than capable for the average guy running track days, just needs a better pad and new brake fluid.
