Brake Upgrade Kits that fit S-lites

Can anyone recommend a good brake upgrade kit that will fit S-lites without spacers? I've already had my front rotors replaced with stock-size drilled/slotted aftermarket ones, with Mintex 1144 intermediate pads and Goodridge hoses at all four ends, and 5.1 brake fluid; but I'd like to get more bite and it seems the single-pot stock calipers are just not up to doing a good job. I use my car mainly in the city, but do autocross runs once or twice a month and maybe track my car once or twice a year. Todd??

If you're cheap

add the metal bushings to get better performance.

The two kits I know of that fit are from Detroit Tuned and ToddTCE.

If I were to do it all over again, I'd call Todd, and get the 11"+ race setup, bigger brakes and less weight.
