Depends on what you need to do. The factory Brembos should hold up to anything you could ever imagine to throw at them on the street and also handle any sort of track Day or HPDE you could ever do. If you wanted to truly race the car (full out caged road racer) then I'm sure stoptech, et al., will come up with a set of 6 or 8 piston brakes for it.
However as i said, you would never ever need these kind of upgrades for the street, complete waste of money better spent on a supercharger or something. Get some slotted rotors if you really need, Brembo might make a better compound pad as well but probably not. The standard Brembo stuff dissipates heat well and thats what is most important is stopping repeatedly, brake fade.
