Whose running what...

Who are most of you going with as far as aftermarket braking?

I am currently running RB Performance Brakes' two-piece, open slotted rotors - front and rear - with their ET500 pads. 6 piston fronts / 2 piston rears with SS lines

With 4 additional pistons and larger brake pads it made a lot of difference over stock.

Haha. I'm not tempting you! It is true that it's a big upgrade over stock and if you're going for big power you should definitely upgrade the brakes.

I have stock sport Akebonos but doing full upgrade. Adams slotted rotors, Hawk pads, SS lines and Motul 600 fluid. Also powdercoating the calipers. I have all the parts and probably doing the instal in a few weeks.

That is the same upgrade I did except I used the DBA slotted 5000f/4000r rotors. It is definitely a nice improvement over the stock sport setup and I am sure you will like it.
