Brake pads EBC or GALFER
Sorry it's a little late, but I've been using EBC yellows on my MK6 for double duty and I have no complaints other than the dust. They certainly make no noise.
I put EBC Red stuff on my GTI (non-PP). I thought the stock pads were too aggressive when driving around town. The reds are less touchy when lightly applied and stop quite well. Very little brake dust. I'm very happy with them.
I used ebc yellows on a 93 mr2 turbo at road Atlanta for 2 full track days this spring with no issues. Also dailied it for a while with them as well.
Run EBC red and be happy. Much better than Hawk HPS (or even HP+ for certain use), and not comparable to the Akebonos because those (Akebono) are really low dust pads with no bite for a heavy and sporty car like the TT.
run redstuff with powerslot slotted rotors never have had a problem will be upgrading to a BBK soon though
I run EBC redstuff and Ultimax rotors on my TT and really like the stopping power. Have run the pads for over year in both street and track and the rotors for 2 years of both street and track without issues. My CC run greenstuff and although the stopping power is great, they have way too much dust for my taste.
Front and Rear RedStuff Performance Brake Pad Set Will post before and after pictures once installed.
I've been using the EBC Red Stuff on my MK5 GTI front and rear for about 2 years or so (about 25k miles). I will agree with everything that their graph says except I would put the dusting a little more to the medium scale. I do notice the bite getting better as the pads get some heat into them (which matches to what their graph is saying).
I thought about changing the pads to EBC but I am not really sold on that brand.
I've had horrible experiences with EBC redstuff pads squealing and their customer service lacking in the past.
