most Cost effective Brake upgrade?
duncan:
i think thats the move
get some Leon Cupra front brakes - would i notice a big difference if i got the rears as well? how much do you think just the front brakes and fitting would come to?
Hedge:
This should help.

You can get the full front brake kit from matted30 for around £600, fitting should be no more than £100.
The leon rears are the same as the gti so no point in getting those.
Leon fronts are more than enough, my ed30 is over 300bhp and they stop the car just fine :wink:
I will wait until the stock pads run out, then i will go for the ferodo pads :smiley:

will be a while before i can afford them but since the remap am definitely finding the stock brakes arnt good enough
£700ish including fitting isnt too bad to be honest - if and when i do start modding the car, next on the list would be an LSD + WALK kit.
am loving the car after the remap - is running so much quicker than before - really does make a massive massive difference

Not sure what the acronyns mean...
LSD = Limited Slip Differential?
WALK = ?
