Brake pads EBC or Bosch
Sorry it's a little late, but I've been using EBC yellows on my MK6 for double duty and I have no complaints other than the dust. They certainly make no noise.
I put EBC Red stuff on my GTI (non-PP). I thought the stock pads were too aggressive when driving around town. The reds are less touchy when lightly applied and stop quite well. Very little brake dust. I'm very happy with them.
I used ebc yellows on a 93 mr2 turbo at road Atlanta for 2 full track days this spring with no issues. Also dailied it for a while with them as well.
Run EBC red and be happy. Much better than Hawk HPS (or even HP+ for certain use), and not comparable to the Akebonos because those (Akebono) are really low dust pads with no bite for a heavy and sporty car like the TT.
run redstuff with powerslot slotted rotors never have had a problem will be upgrading to a BBK soon though
I run EBC redstuff and Ultimax rotors on my TT and really like the stopping power. Have run the pads for over year in both street and track and the rotors for 2 years of both street and track without issues. My CC run greenstuff and although the stopping power is great, they have way too much dust for my taste.
I use Bosch QuietCast brake pads. Never had a problem and work great.
Front and Rear RedStuff Performance Brake Pad Set Will post before and after pictures once installed.
I thought about changing the pads to EBC but I am not really sold on that brand.
Don't buy EBC greens for the van. I put a full set on and the van has horrible braking performance before the pads heat up, which we almost never do. Cold pad performance is almost dangerous. Get something with more initial bite.
