It depends on its use.

If you are wanting daily driving go with brembo blanks and oe pads - least amount of brake dust and decent performance.
If you are wanting daily driver with some auto-x go with brembo blanks, stainless steel lines and metal master pads - mild dust but superior stopping compared to oe.
If the car is strictly auto-x go with brembo blanks or a set of slotted rotors with the higher end hawk pads and stainless steel lines.

All of these go onto stock placement points in your brakes but if you are really wanting to increase the stopping ability go with the legend conversion.

Like I said it depends on what you are wanting to achieve.

I will be driving the daily, but I want to have some good brakes.
Legend brakes are bigger? Or are actually more powerful?
Thanks!!!
