Question Another quick ?

I took my car for a spin last night after installing my new cat and downpipe. I noticed that my brake light was on and my brakes suck a$$. What would be the best thing to do? Get drilled/slotted rotors and new brake pads, or get bigger brakes and whatnot? I mean I don't need friggin formula 1 brakes or anything but this car isn't stopping fas enough for me. Thanks.

Before doing all that, I'd check my brake fluid and brake pads..

why did you add that (illegally) part?

Anyway.. the reason your brake light is on is because your fluid is low.

Steel braided lines and some good pads would probably make a world of difference.
