Default NSX Legend caliper?

Is it worth upgrading my stock itr calipers to the Legend GS (NSX) dual piston calipers? Will there be a noticeable difference?

List of Mods (if any)??? Are you FI?

Stock ITR calipers, good street pads, SS lines, proper fluid, some Brembo blanks.... Your set.

No need for NSX calipers, but they look cool.

In for opinions....but I can't imagine the NSX setup would be worth it on your ITR.

You can only brake as hard as your tires allow. You get larger diameter rotors for more brake torque and more heat distribution, you generally get larger calipers for a bigger pad and more pressure applied. Again good pads and fluid go a long way with brake fade and stopping power. I can lock the tires up with ease if I brake at too much of a progressive rate. When I let someone drive my car it was hilarious, my clutch is almost like a light switch, my gas pedal has no play just instant throttle, and a tap of the brakes will lock the seat belts hard! I love everything responsive. Straying off as I always do... but yeah why do you think you need different calipers?
