at least you have ABS, it was an option on early cars which i didn't get on mine.
I changed to late model 4 pot calipers and they do a lot better job.
With the boost controller make sure the fuel cut is changed or you won't take full advantage of it.

Mine still fuel cuts at 1.1bar I think it is When setting a boost controller up, don't do it in 5th IMO 3rd or 4th gear.

I'm still on 2 pots but have ABS which made fitting my FMIC a bitch for cutting the inner wing. 2pots are **** poor braking from speed though.

Raced my mate at SSO, his is a classic with Brembo's front n back, I flew past him at the end of the 1/4 mile, when we were both braking. I need to pul my finger out soon.

You would probably be best off with a Walbro pump, widely available and pretty much a straight swap.
