TL Type S brake upgrade

Would there be any benefit to replacing my stock 2001 V6 brakes with the front calipers and rotors from a 2002 TL type S?

The '02-03 TL Type-S uses the same front brakes as the standard '99-03 3.2TL.

What is wrong with your current brakes?

Nothing wrong, just wondered if there was more pad area or better clamping force. There is a pair for sale on Craigslist here.

No.

You wanna upgrade to a 95 Acura Legend GS, 2 piston brake caliper. It will bolt right up to the accord bracket/rotor. you could run a 12.6 inch brake rotor upgrade with the Legend Caliper as well.
