Big brakes upgrade

I'm looking for some big brake kit recommendations, I need a front set for a less than $2K budget. The brands I'm considering so far (under $2k) are K-Sport 8-pot & Welwood 6-pot. Welwood is slightly more expensive than K-Sport. After doing some online research I found some complaints about the quality of the pads included in the K-Sport kit, therefore, I'm leaning toward the Welwoods & I wonder if anyone here have used them & would provide me with some feedback.

I also would appreciate any advice/information regarding other brands

Just curious, why do you need or think you need a big brake kit? Is this just for looks?

The stock brake system with 2 pc rotors and high end pads works very well. To keep it cool for heavy track use, install a 3" brake duct system for the fronts.

For street use, you dont need rotors, decent pads like EBC yellow or blue or similar types will work very well.
