Possibly  :-/. But how fast is your 2.5 ???    ;)

Around £100 will get you Trade Club front discs & pads and they are easily up to the job.  :y

EBC do various spec of upgrade pads, and there are grooved vented discs available too.
Of course you could ditch the standard single pot floating caliper setup completely and go for something fancy like a 4 pot with larger discs, all depends on how much you want to spend I suppose.
