Default Yes, 2-piece light weight rotor makes hp too (check out the dyno testing)

We are now offering our new design and development convergent vanes rotor they are the sport tuned type rotor superior to oe and competitor application are for the Audi TT RS front and rear 2012 up. We have been getting many positive feedback about its performance. The mass reduction on the front rotor is 6.5 lbs. the rear is 2.9 lbs. it is by far the lightest rotor out there for the Audi TT RS, lighter rotors means better performance at the wheels and don't be surprise if your gain extra 10 to 15 whopping horsepower after installing these rotors. This is your chance to gain those hp back that was lost with the heavy oe rotors. It is proven that a lighter two-piece rotor can increase horsepower check the dyno testing link. Dyno testing light weight rotors?

Advantages:

* Has the advantages of both drilled & slotted rotors
* Allows the disc to expand and contract and prevents the disc from cracking or warping
* Increasing cooling area and retains more friction surface
* Slots relieves thermal stress
* Slots are self cleaning and the pad build up will not clog the slots and are exhausted via the rotor edge keeping the disc surface clean
* Reduces brake pad dust buildup and keeps the wheel clean through vacuum effect

Rotor Material: Racing Formula Alloyed Gray Iron & Heat treated
Machining: Straight Slot
Surface: EDP Coating w/cross cut grinding on friction surface


Front rotor weight Comparison
OEM Rotor 27.0 lbs.
RB 2 Piece 20.5 lbs.
Weight Savings: 6.5 lbs.

Rear rotor weight Comparison
One-piece 14.9 lbs.
RB Two-piece 12 lbs.
Weight Savings: 2.9 lbs.

Total weight savings: 19 lbs.

TT RS front rotor: Two-piece rotor (Open Slot) -Audi TT RS FRONT 2012

TT RS rear rotor: Two-piece rotor (Open Slot) -Audi TT RS REAR 2012

Got anything that would work on the 2001 TT? If so, what would be the weight savings? Definitely interested in rotors like these ones; slotted, drilled and coated while being lighter than stock/oem
