Default He's in Parker, a suburb of Denver...

About 30-45 minutes from the airport.

Re the EFUs - I've got an A6. Any issues? I've got other questions - want to take this offline?

However you look at it, my car will always be an s4 and that will always be an rs4 ; ) Take the rs4.

Jeff...the factory RS6 brake thing is a nice novelty but the Alcon 6 pot's are better.

Default I realize. Been offered many sets, but as far as a factory supplied part goes these are a pair of

nearly identical,unique cars. It's a great story.

You're telling *me* the Alcons are better than RS6? That is pretty hilarious.

Agreed...the history/special work of them alone is worth something.

Default I think the RS6 caliper is junk

8 pot 2 piece Brembo. Very heavy - there's a big chunk of extra material - probably there to prevent some weird resonance. They're not elegant at all.

The rotors are nothing special either, and very expensive,
