The reason behind this is because the prelude was designed for a 1 piston system. it cannot put out enough pressure through the breaklights to fully take advantage of that 4 piston caliper. Therefore to upgrade in actual stopping performance, the 2 piston calipers like nsx and legend is a better move because it doesnt need as much pressure as a 4 and 6 piston caliper.

-The more you know
Gotcha, thanks for that explanation....

And all you guys, I assume he means "brakelines" not "breaklights"
