Supercomp Big Brake Kit

The Ksport Supercomp Big Brake Kit represents the pinnacle of brake upgrades, engineered to deliver exceptional stopping power for your Saab 9-5 (1998-2002) without requiring any vehicle modifications for installation. This sophisticated, bolt-on system builds upon the Ksport Procomp kit by incorporating larger calipers, rotors, and brake pads, along with an increased number of pistons and standard full-floating rotors. The full-floating rotor design allows for slight adjustments, enhancing self-centering within the caliper, reducing brake drag, and ensuring more even pad application for improved performance. Constructed for durability and performance, the calipers feature a 1-piece forged design from a solid billet of aircraft-grade aluminum, ensuring lightweight strength and resistance to corrosion. They also incorporate aluminum pistons, which offer superior heat resistance compared to standard materials. For braking compound, the kit comes standard with SC5 Street Pads, made from NAOC Ceramic material. These pads are optimized for street use and occasional track days, offering a significant reduction in brake dust (over 50% less than race pads), minimizing noise, and reducing rotor wear. They perform optimally in temperatures ranging from 194°F to 1022°F. Further enhancing the braking system are D.O.T. compliant stainless-steel braided brake lines. These lines are crucial for preventing expansion under pressure, leading to a quicker pedal response and a firmer, more consistent pedal feel compared to stock rubber lines. Buyers can choose between Cross Drilled or Slotted rotors. Cross Drilled rotors are recommended for daily driven vehicles as they offer better cooling, while Slotted rotors are suggested for those who frequent track driving. Ksport Big Brake kits are built to order, with production and delivery typically taking 4-6 weeks. Fitment is specifically for the Saab 9-5 models from 1998 to 2002, with listings for the 2.3t trim in 2000 and 2002.
