Just put in the order on my  Porsche Boxster 4-piston monobloc calipers over the 1999 Audi A8 312x25mm rotors with stainless brake lines. 

No more non-stopping me so fast  my face hits the steering wheel brakes for me. 

Coming from MK1 and MK2 chassis VW's that is the one thing that I am still getting used to with the UrS4.  It weighs a lot and has a lot of mass.  These things have a curb weight of 3839lbs so there is a lot of Newton's Laws of Motion to work against when going into a trun hard.  I would have gone to the even larger "Big Blacks" but from what I've read these will be the best for my purposes.  The "Big Blacks" might cause me headaches in the snow and besides, they cost a lot more.  I'm not tracking my car, I just want a better pedal feel/brake response when going through the twisties to/from work.

BTW, the B5S4 weights in with a curb weight of 3384lbs.  Thats a 505lbs difference!!!!
