I really wish I had some hard data to provide. I have tried to organise some brake testing to compare KiDo with the STI Brembo but so far there have been to many problems. Stupid things like getting 3 of the same cars together in the same place, one with stock WRX brakes, one with Brembos and one with KiDo brakes.
Even then, what do I compare, the Kido 330x25mm rotor with a 6 pot caliper (just a little bigger than the Brembo) or the 330x32mm or the 356x32mm and do I then drop an 8 pot caliper on it? Note I haven't even considered the rear end which gets even more complex.
Something which might help down the track is the WRX KiDo is sponsoring in Targa Tasmania next April. It is running mid6 pot front and 4 pot rear calipers on 325x25mm front rotors and 300mm rears.
It also has 4 wheel digital brake temperature display.
