[s-cars] Brake upgrade?

[Tim Leonard]

I have cross drilled 993tt discs(on S6) with the same effect. To me it's
inevitable that you must be cautious under these circumstances at minimum to
the point of dry warm/hot brakes. I believe my "new" A6 4.2 is made for you.
The computer must give the last voice of reason before anything happens. I
love my S6.
Best,
