While higher temp pads and fluids are critical they are not the only ways to improve braking. Upgraded (larger and stronger) brakes (discs, pads, calipers) can absorb and dissipate more heat.

And facebook is terrible for advice, any idiot can post something completely wrong and it get's spread around by more idiots and there is nothing to stop it. At least hear if some idiot posts something it can be removed, locked, or clearly replied to as wrong. While it's not perfect here either (I still don't believe the MC issue is real) it's much better than facebook.
TechnicZ and Eagle like this.
