Brake pads OEM Audi or WILWOOD
They replaced everything brakewise, pads/discs/calipers/.. and everything on charge of Audi ofc.
Vehicle:
Audi
I've done lots of jobs that don't involve getting inside the engine, such as replacing brake rotors/pads, alternators, starters, shocks, accessory/alternator belts, etc.
Pros: replaced brake rotors/pads
Vehicle:
Audi TT
If this is going to take off you need to make sure it will work for those with upgraded brakes, specifically the Audi 8 pot and 362mm ap discs setup.

I took the liberty of swapping my A4 brakes into S4 brakes, all for 600 dollars. The brakes should response much better, stronger, and use much less pedal force. Your brakes when the engine is off should be REALLY hard if properly bled.
Pros: stronger response, less pedal force
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Here's mine. MMP adapter brackets, stock 11" rotors, BP20 pads. Work very well.
Pros: work very well
I've got them on my SLC as well. They are amazing. I have stainless hoses and drilled/slotted rotors all around. Went from stock brakes with mintex red box pads, to Girling 60's with hawk hps pads, and put Wilwoods on it last year and the wilwood's just blow the others out of the water. AND they fit under the stock wheels.
Pros: amazing, fit stock wheels
The 337/TT brakes will put a huge smile on your face. Of course, you should also make sure you have hi perf tires as well, or they will overpower your tires. It's a very, very wise upgrade. Get them with HPS pads and SS lines.
Pros: wise upgrade, huge smile
Cons: overpower your tires
Vehicle:
Audi TT
I don't know much about Stop-Tech, however, I have heard from a friend that used Wilwood that these perform best in non-Winter driving conditions. He said that over time they will not stand up as well as a Brembo set up. It might be worth noting what climate (Alaska vs California) that you spend most of your driving time in as well when factoring a BBK upgrade. I also noticed that you are quite new to this group so allow me to introduce you to the member who will derail all original posts into something else to the point where your thread may get locked up. See below. GoGo Golf R said: Ok let's try to agree on the following: 1) Upgrading the brakes is mostly justified for track driving purposes No, Personal preference. 2) Changing the brake pads will reduce dust for street driving Depends on your pad choice 3) Changing the brake pads, rotors and brake lines is pricy Subjective 4) The OEM brakes, while not totally ideal for every driving style, will suffice for average street drivers and some track drivers Depends on your driving style 5) Downshifting with correct rev-matching, will extend the duration and reduce wear on the brakes Yes because replacing your clutch is much cheaper than new pads :screwy:
Pros: perform best in non-winter
Cons: don't stand up as well over time
I found a nominal improvement in braking power and feel with the 12.3". But as NOVAdub stated, the biggest impact was on repeatability.
Pros: improvement in braking power
Vehicle:
Audi TT
Wilwoods suck.
Cons: suck
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Corrado
