What is the largest engine hp that would be considered "right" for my braking system? I have
911 "M" Calipers and front struts, and 5 lug 6X15 fuchs. Other than that I am stock. I was thinking the 2.4 engine would be the best I could do. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

It depends on what you are doing with the car.
I don't necessarily think you NEED a brake upgrade, hell, I'm keeping the stock brakes on my hot 2.2.
A well-tuned stock system works fine for our cars on the street. Now, if it's a DE car then that's another story.
