Check out a real BBK parts list to see what I mean.
Factory stuff is always kinda junky. You'll never get the best of the best unless you buy an Aventador with carbon brakes. Like an Audi with a Bose system. That's no where near a real Bose system!

Depends. Some guys race so much they find a blank rotor that works because replacing two piece cost so much. The caliper weight is marginal unless you go with Stillen's new kit made by AP racing, that cuts the caliper all up so there's like no material left.
