Been contemplating an upgrade to a bigger brake system. Not sure the advantages of sticking w/ a system such as 12" that is suppose to fit w/ stock size rims, or go a bit bigger; & have to also upgrade to larger after market wheels?

I put the new 88 up on stands lastnight to take a peek under it (and get ready to change fluilds, swap on exhaust with wideband O2 to tune MAFT) and i notices an odd looking tranny mount: http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p299/jisleyjr/88conquest/IMG_20120731_214502.jpg http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p299/jisleyjr/88conquest/IMG_20120731_214532.jpg http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p299/jisleyjr/88conquest/IMG_20120731_214502.jpg   I figure this is the tranny cooler?

If that is all there, would that "upgrade" really make a big noticable difference in how it handles?   I guess someone would have to own both stock to stock to really answer that objectively.
