I kept warping rotors (track events) and MBNA replaced and upgraded under warranty. They improve track performance when combined with improved (larger stickier) tires but offer no street benefit. Conversion is a simple caliper bolt on / rotor swap. If you really need to improve performance cooling is far cheaper.

Pardon me for asking but did you do the upgrade because the OE was failing? What kind of "seat-of-the-pants" improvement did the 600 brakes provide? Simple conversion? Thanks.
