Good to hear they are standing behind their work.

GRM had a nice article on brakes sometime last year if
I remember correctly.

Basically, changing anything on your brakes is going to
change the  whole system. A re-bore will probably be a
very small change, but you'll be pushing slightly more
fluid, which to my thinking will increase pedal pressure
slightly, probably not noticably.
