Better "bite" and potential for increased brake torque. Improvements may be limited to tires you run. Higher heat capacity/disipation potential.

Considering for looks or real racing? If you're tracking your car, there are alternatives if you experience problems with the stock set-up.

Heard great things about these guys they supply the Porsche LM endurance brakes which are well known to be the most effective in the entire world. (Designed to be fade free after 10 consecutive full power stops from 180mph - 0 !!!!)

There is a guy on this site from Brembo - maybe he can help you out. Check out the 512/Testarossa crossover thread

Thinking about upgrading the front brake of my 550 to 380mm disc and 6-piston caliper. Any comment please.
