I have the Stoptech 332mm front brakes with stainless lines all around, I used Pagid Orange for the track event. They definitely performed as advertised. I had just a hair of brake fade and that is only because I was over driving the brakes. I had all the confidence in the world in those brakes.
Audi parts reviews
With regard to tire pressures, btw. I'm running T1-S in a 245/45 16 size on my S6 wagon, with 36 pounds of pressure in each tire. I started out at 34, and picked it up to 36.
I've run K&N's in my carS for over 20 years including 5 VW's and Audi's and NEVER had a MAF failure until the one on my TT recently. HMMM. My A4 1.8T has had a K&N in it for 45k+ and it's running fine. No doubt if you don't oil the K&N correctly and submerge it in oil you will run into problems.
10,000 mls plus, no problems. Performance? Hm, maybe a bit since I'm chipped.
I've used Valvoline Synthetic 5W-40 for 2 years now, I'm very happy witht the oil's performance in all conditions.
My car on 15x8's is sporting 195/50 15's and the tires are slightly stretched-- not too stretched in my opinion but just help to round out the sidewall a bit
My brakes on the front went at around 30K. I bought Zimmerman crossdrilled rotors, stainless brake lines, Mintex pads, and new fluid for all four wheels. I had the local Midas shop do the complete install for $200.
I have the TT brakes too, and I installed ferodo! the best pad you could buy... performance there is no comparison, ferodo are for racing aplication BUT, they make a lot of dusk....
Never a problem with my K&N dropin, it was rather "dry" when installing it. Performance gain? Honestly, don't know..., seems my butt dyno feels a little more free breathing.
Man, why would anyone want these things? My audi has them... all they do is leave big streaks of dried up washer fluid down the length of your hood every time you use 'em. Makes a clean car look bad instantly. Oh, and I've never gotten my headlights so dirty that I actually needed them (or ever noticed a difference).
