>>>It's a fairly straightforward procedure.   You just bolt a second set of 
calipers on the rear, and remove the pressure reduction valve in the front. 
  Run a T-fitting from the two rear flex hoses to the hard line on each 
side, and you're in business.   It adds a ton of weight, and there are far, far 
better ways to get improved braking, but if you have a spare set of stock 
calipers lying around, then it's an almost no-cost upgrade.

I wouldn't buy a set of calipers to do this though.
