i would suggest anyone thinking of fitting bigger brakes should look carefully into it, and only use tried and tested sets like the AP 4 pots etc, i had AP 6 pots on my old car and they were awesome at stopping, BUT they used to grind occasionally which really did my head in (this trait apparently doesn't occur on the AP 4 pots)

The Awesome GTI EDC Porsche upgrade is meant for the 4 X 4 Cayenne and not the Porsche 911 or Boxster. As such I don't recommend it either.

When I asked about the price of them they said the price was £1,350 plus VAT plus fitting, this was immediately followed by Mark saying "Do you want my TAROX 10 pots for £1k fitted?"........The rest is history :grin:
