>>>When you say 'drag', are you talking about actual braking performance, 
or are you talking about drag when you're not on the brakes?   I say that as 
long as the calipers are functioning, the drag when you're not on the brakes 
is insignificant.

Stock calipers weigh a ton.   If I was going to do something to change my 
rear braking situation, it would be to replace the caliper with a more 
capable caliper, versus just doubling up on the stock calipers.
