OK, whether or not you read my related post...
What do I need to upgrade to larger front rotors...other than the rotors of course.
bias valve right? what else?

Unless you havethe time and resources to properly engineer a brake SYSTEM, I would reccomend you use what works like Baer, SSBC, RoadTech, or Wilwood. Don't go jacking with things just to have bigger rotors. I'm if I were you, I'd jsut put on new rotors, quality pads, SS lines and fresh synthetic fluid. You'll be amazed at the difference.
I personnaly am using 6 piston calipers. ofcourse, I'm slowing from nearly 200mph

I agree, since you would need completely different mounting hardware for your calipers. Either a full 1LE setup, or going with a complete aftermarket kit.
