Found Brake booster, will this help?

hey guys. I'm trying to improve my stopping power without upgrading the whole brake system.

my first question is does the Type S come with a brake booster already in it? if so, then the following is useless.

if not, then would this help our stopping power at all???

thanks

never mind. I did some more research and realized that all power brakes come with a brake booster. Therefore, this would only help if mine wasn't working, which I'm assuming it is.

so thanks anyways.

damn you Kent!!!

nice brakes btw. Once you have them installed lemme know how they feel. Once I have enough money, I'm for sure picking up a set of those Rotora brakes. Brembo's are good, but the company believes they are the absolute best brakes in the world (which they might be) and the price of them shows it too. Rotora are like 1200 USD, Brembo are 1900 USD, and to me they look, and probably feel the same.

700 bux extra for something that says Brembo? No thank you.

btw sorry for the double post, my fault.

where do you feel the difference between brembo and stock. Don't get me wrong, i think that our stock brakes are garbage, Acura should have atleast put rotora brakes on these car.

braking distances probably wont get much better (thats a traction thing) but you can stop over and over and over and over with out fade
