Why go for more brake pots/cylinders

A popular brake upgrade is to a caliper with more pots, The reason is that more pots enables the caliper designer to spread the braking force evenly over a larger pad. A larger pad has more friction area and is thereby more effective at stopping the vehicle.

This is true up to a point. It is quite logical that a pad has a height as well as its width and given a specific pad size it will be more effective to arrange 3 pots to spread an even load than say 5 or 6.. see diagram

Why bigger brake disks/rotors work

Do bigger disks help stop the car: Absolutely. The further away from the centre of the wheel your pad is placed the more leverage it has to stop the vehicle. What a bigger disk also does is lower the overall operating temperature of the brakes, due to its larger surface area and increased capacity to dissipate heat. Which is an important feature as the major cause of brake fade is overheating of the brake fluid, as well as reducing pad wear- pads wear exponentially quicker once their designed operating temperature is exceeded.
