until I win the lotto
I'd like to upgrade my brake rotors to vented/cross drilled and better pads. I'd like to keep only German parts on my car so I'm considering Mov'it OEM upgrade. I've got the exhaust covered, but I'd like to know if anyone can tell me any thing about the stage 4 chip/spring upgrade from TAP. 110hp/125lbs?****! Sounds too god to be true. Feedback please, Enlighten me. THank you.

IMO, if you are staying with stock sized rotors, i wouldn't bother with cross drilled
i have zimmermans on my car with PBR Metalmaster pads. The rotors make little to no difference, so you are pretty much wasting your money. from checking Mov'it's website, it looks like they mostly only have big brake upgrades.
There is lots of informantion on chips if you use the "search" function, that would be easier.

I think most people would agree on this forum, go MTM, MRC, or Lehmann
I loved my MTM Stage 1+, definetely was perky and pulled extremely well. I agree with Emre about TAP, but people on this forum do have TAP chips and they don't have a problem with them.

Re: There is no way you can get 110 hp with just a chip and a spring. You have to ...
Not to open up a can of worms...but I was wondering...Assuming a 20% drivetrain loss for quattro, which was typical for the dyno day I did, and dyno'ing @ 240 awhp with MTM stage 1+, dahlback intake, and stromung...that's like 300 at the crank...i don't know, food for thought...i know this is going to turn into something it shouldn't...haha
