:signLOL: come on you could have done better than k04, should have read go bigger than k04 :signLOL:
k04 conversion gives our cars 309bhp, ours at stage 2+ give 280bhp, 320-340Ibft, so if i get some water meth id be looking at 300bhp for about 2000 pound less. dont think i can justify that cost for such small gain
tony_danza:
Disc cost depends on if you're replacing softer 1 piece discs twice as often - I think you'd need the right aftermarket version. The OEM ones don't have to be that expensive if you know someone in the parts trade.

true but surley it wouldnt eat discs that quickly. ill have a look ito this i think. Have you any idea of the size on this, and the calipers that would be used
you guys are really bad by the way, i started by asking about r32 brakes, now im looking into RS6 discs, whats next then ill be on 356mm brembos the way this is going
tony_danza:
Same calipers no doubt, although I know Dave knows the cheaper Porsche options, usually Boxter 4 pots (cheaper because you'll find them 2nd hand to refurb).
Discs will be an Audi RS rear of some description, around 335-345mm. I bet you could save yourself £300 on that kit by a bit of research and speaking to Dave. Put that to the next set of discs.
