If the brakes have the ability to easily stop wheel rotation, then bigger better brakes wont make the car stop any quicker.
It's sort of like the dilema of killing ants with a one pound hammer, or a two pound hammer. Which is better?

are you serious?
of course braking performance will improve if you fit larger discs (ie bigger brakes). Ask anyone who ever replaced the 1200's 212mm discs with the Stanza's 244mm discs.

a more scientific explanation is a bit long, but the main factors to consider are leverage, and speed of the disc at the point it's being grasped by the caliper.
