The only good thing drilled rotors will do is shed water for better braking
in the rain. Every hole is less mass to absorb heat, more potential for
stress risers and cracks, and cooler running is just speculation. If you
need more powerful brakes, put on the bigger calipers and rotors. I don't
think an 0.1 liter boost in motor size is going to justify the need of any
brake expense beyond stock. Verify those wheels/tires weigh no more than
stock or you can start pulling the suspension mounts apart.
