Once your brake setup feels good, doesn't fade, and allows you to brake at the limits of your tires, there isn't any reason to upgrade anymore!

OK, I have my instructor hat on now. How do you know you are at the limits of your tires?
In most cases, braking isn't about stopping. It is about slowing. How the brake slows the car under differnt circumstances including but not limited to speed, pedal pressure, temperature, pad depth, etc... Can you describe the ideal brake system? You only refer to feel, and fade as parameters. Can you be a little more specfic?
