GIAC is proving a mighty good power mod and they specify the RS4 injectors at the moment. If they specified S3 I would be using those.
My R is currently VERY quick, some would say too quick ( my wife :grin: ). I haven't seen another tuner in the UK who has even attempted to go as far as I have gone with a MKVI R. Maybe there are, but I haven't seen any proof that any other UK tuner is quicker, safer or stronger than what Statller and GIAC currently provide. APR have one car in Australia that has proven performance, but I believe this is also down to the man tuning the R as much as the tune on it. Then there is Teff, who's car is also more of a testament to the builder.
I cannot fault Statller as my chosen builder/tuner and I can honestly say that my car wouldn't be as strong as it is now without their dedication and support.
It is the builder that ultimately makes the car perform and you place your trust in what decisions they put forward and so individual parts like injectors, intakes, turbos etc are key to the outcome. :smiley:

The adaptors only work with TTRS alloy hubs. They are completely different to the S3 alloy hubs.
Or am I missing something?
Nothing wrong with having a Lamborghini sticker on the calipers. Adds scene points.

You must be missing something as Steve has already done a test fit and it works on the R. :smiley:
Are you calipers on yet Alex?

Adaptors from Dave?
Stop giving half the picture. Bored having to squeeze an answer.
TTRS carriers and TTRS discs only work on TTRS hubs. You can't just bolt on TTRS carriers with 335mm discs. If it's Dave's brackets, then you have to use TTRS hubs with TTRS carriers and either the rs6 or phaeton disc.
Front wheel drive car needs alloy hubs from a TT or scirocco and they work with S3 carriers with Dave's adaptors.
So.... I'm guessing you are using some different adaptors?
My front brakes are going on when the car is back from paint, along with some new wheels.
Hurdy:
I'm not giving half a story Alex.
TT rear carriers, A8 335mm rear discs, stock calipers fitted up to the stock R hubs. :happy2:

The one thing you are missing is that to make that all work together is a set of Dave's CC1085 brackets.
I believe the discs also need modifying to fit correctly too.
