I think the BA GT brakes are a better upgrade as the brakes are "stronger" as they are 325mm x 32mm compared to the XR6T which are 322mm x 28mm and the calipers in the BA GT kit are also a better caliper and for $1000 it is a steal.
As you need to buy rotors,pads and lines you will pay anywhere from $350 to $700 if using slotted rotors and depending on brand etc plus the cost of your second hand calipers you need to buy that may or may not need overhauling. The PBR front BA GT kit has all those parts but better quality with braided lines.
Either kit will improve your braking and that is the main benefit its just the BA GT kit will be a step over the FG XR6T kit.
As of today we only have one kit left.
