Default Are my brakes good enough?

MY00 UK will soon be running approx 330bhp. are the stock brakes ok or should i be looking to upgrade? If so will i need a full kit or could i just upgrade discs and pads? thanks.

try Scooby Clinic | The UK's Largest Independent Subaru Specialists | 01246 590 807 - Chesterfield S42 6QX i've had ferodo and mintex on mine, had heat issues witht he mintex, but that might have been the brake fluid, blew up the gearbox within 4 days of the pads going in (was on the isle of man so good testing session) so not sure if it was an odd occasion
