Thanks for the info, considering a similar upgrade (brakes not turbo ) in the future. Which Dot5 fluid are they using? The Endless fluid is rumoured to be the best but is quite costly. Motul Rbf 500 (I think - @sav correct me) is an option and Formula Friction recommend a Ferodo alternative.

Also let us know what kind of mileage you get on those Yellow Stuff pads!

Black and gold are ftw!

What rotors were you using with the Yellow Stuff pads? Also did you follow the correct break-in procedure?

Stock rotors (not new) and I believe that yes, the break-in procedure was followed.
