I'm looking for some brakes for my stylus and am considering the two above, any thoughts would be appreciated.

Both are good upgrades from standard, but can you warrant the additional money for HiSpec over Wilwood? For me, probably not. I'd also check out Rally Design for brake upgrade kits (got my Wilwoods from them), as Burton aren't usually the cheapest....

Powerlites arent sealed calipers, so might not be best for a road car which does a reasonable miles and isnt stripped/inspected after each event.

Midlites are sealed so probably a better comparison to the HIspec.
