When someone ran the numbers based on my preliminary measurements for the sport performance kit, they found it was extremely close to stock, less than 2% difference in brake torque. Obviously, that shouldn't affect anything for anyone but this was eyeballed with a crappy ruler and could be inaccurate so I had hoped to take more accurate measurements before the snow flew but I never got time so now I'm waiting until spring.
The numbers I got don't match any the published numbers for these calipers from Wilwood so someone (A member of the competition mind you) ran the numbers based on the closest options provided by Wilwood and all of the options are within about 5% of stock. This represents a worst case scenario for these braking systems and IMO, is still fine for the average driver and light track use but I admit a more demanding driver might find this insufficient.

note the difference between the light user newer driver with WW front only vs. WW front and rear. i wouldn't argue the amount the former shifts bias forward no big deal for anyone, just because the number "seems to be small"
