[s-cars] Porsche Big Reds or Big Blacks

[Kevin Campbell]

Not trying to start a fire here.  Just trying to find input.

So, my father runs a German Auto shop in Menlo Park, CA.  He specializes
un Audi's, Porsche, and VW for the most part.  Ask asked hom about the
Prosche calipers and how his customers felt about the performance
increase from the stockers.

These are his words and not mine "All of my S customers who have upgrade
to Porshe calipers and rotors claim the see no significant imporvement
in their braking performance.  His frame of refernce is only about 5
customers who have done this.

So if we assume these folks are telling the truth (they have no reason
not to as it could be seen as needless waste of $$$), then why would
someone make this mod?  For looks?

Subject: [s-cars] Dead Battery this AM....


Well it has been a fun last 15 hours.  In that time I have had my Home
PC's motherboard and CPU fry...stayed up past 2 AM rebuilding her and
OS....now this AM when I come to start up the car...battery is DEAD.  
	I jump the car and she stalls again..no start.  Jump her once
more and let the battery charge for 30 min...turn off car starts right
up.  Not sure what drained the battery though..my only thought is I know
the Cell Phone in the car (Audi's Internal Cell) has been sort of acting
up...turning it self on. (As I leave it off all the time and don't use
it)  So I have unplugged that in hoping to diagnose.  Only other
thoughts are the Audi/Bose Stereo AMP or CD Changer..but I have never
had a problem with either.
	The only plus is that after I dropped the car over at ASW for
them to take a peek..I got a nice ride in their Sportec Tuned RS6 to
work....holy cow does that car have a flat torque curve!  Man...just
like being in a rocket with the constant push you in your seat
feel....maybe 10 years from now I will pick one up ;-)
