On a budget you can get A8 rotors with TT carriers and use your stock calipers. But if you want more, ecs has porsche brembo brakes.

The A8 rotor upgrade is nice as you can do this upgrade in stages. Do the rotors first (with the TT carriers) then when funds allow you can do the Porsche Boxster calipers. Those are great brakes and a significant upgrade from stock.

Check out ECS tuning...they have nice upgrade kits:
