Do I need Bigger Brakes

theres no problem. if you want to get a big brake kit from Brembo. they run like 2000, but Brembo are probably the best brakes.

RE: Do I need Bigger Brakes

If your car is not stopping well, it is not because of the chip. Either you are driving more aggressively (no SH*t), or soemthing is wrong with your brakes. Have them checked for wear or leaks.
