Adding more grip and/or bigger brakes may only make it worse. I think the stock calipers and rotors are probably fine. Brake ducting would probably be beneficial.

Interesting theory... I can't find anything online that's similar for other cars, but it's semi-plausible. The ABS would read the rapid deceleration as a partial lockup...?
