Have no idea, but the guru on brakes systems is C&R Enterprises Steve. Give them a bell and ask about 256 upgrade braking and ask them about the Passat set-up. (Note Steve the guru isn't there at the moment won't be back until Monday - I speak to this lot as least once a week.. :) )

Ordered my 256 brakes upgrade kit today..... :)

Yeah it's from C&R, but price is discounted and I can't say as I'm buying alot from them at the moment. There upgrade kit is more expensive than TSR's.
