To be honest mate, slowing you down is the aim of any brake system ........ :evilgrin:

They do weigh A LOT, in the region of 22KG each side, adding a massive amount of unsprung weight. I ran them for a bit.
Can't understand why the 4 pot Cupra R 1.8T brakes weren't used or developed upon in the later R32/S3/Cupra.... cost?
There's no doubting they are better than the standard GTI setup, but that weight and single piston... meh.

Yes a little off putting but I'm sure the braking power is of more benefit.
Downpipe and stage 2 it s then. I'm sure APR offer free stage upgrades?
Also no intercooler needed?
Est power output without upgrade pump?
Gaz:
Interested in this too, as i may fit decat downpipe and get APR to upgrade to stage 2.
Im sure they quote 270bhp.
Then stage 2+ is 280bhp? Cant remember the hardware difference though..
