your going to have uneven braking force on your front wheels, if the smaller caliper is on the passenger side, when you stamp on them it could pitch the car to the right. the smaller caliper will also overheat sooner = even more reduced stopping power on that side compared to the other. = dangerous, end of.

I read the initial post.

**** brakes, replaced and it's still not stopping as it should.

Take it back. Make them MOT the brake system, at least.
