I think you will find that an increase in acceleration (that will occur when you more than double the power output of the motor) will require better brakes to stop the car in the same distance..

Not from the same speed dude!

This is fine if you only ever stop once, but in the real world you use your brakes over and over again. This gets back to my earlier point about going for a blat on a twisty road; with a more powerful engine you will be carrying more average speed into corners than you did before (even if you restrict your maximum speed to the speed limit), AND there will be less time between each application of the brakes. The result is more heatsoak in your brakes, and pissy little solid discs won't be able to dissipate the heat fast enough.
There's no getting around it, a more powerful engine needs more powerful brakes. I would have thought that was common sense though?
