Once they come I'll be installing them, stainless brake lines and new pads and I'm gonna get them to flush the brakes and refill with better brake fluid. I'm pretty stoked.

Have done some research but frankly don't know enough yet about brake performance improvement, if I change. Other than the stock pad dust issue noted by many, I still ask myslef will I need / use an upgrade set - I don't track? Either way am behind yourself and many on that. Enjoy the improved ride when you're set up

Had some own queries fro Capristo, ...the following comments were responded to me;

"......Regarding the performance of the S4/S5 V6 Engine, please find attached the German TÜV certificate regarding our exhaust system and the findings of TÜV.

We never measured the weight but we estimate that our exhaust system would be around 15 kg lighter.

For the sound file, we have also attached a video which we have posted on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=.../8/Za2rBwEm1KQ

In order to remove the drone, we have built an exhaust system and a control unit which monitors and constantly controls the back pressure. So there will be no droning sound....."
