The stock tt brakes are a 4 piston caliper? Or were you talking about the wilwood kits? Yeah I consider the wilwood setup a bbk, but stock single piston calipers on 12.3" one piece rotors is hard to justify as a bbk.

Stock TT brakes are 12.3" rotors and single calipers. My wilwoods are 4 pistons. The TT upgrade is more than enough for most people. Its deff better than stock.

if you are running the bbk with a8's and tt carriers, could you get the wildwood 4 pistons on/in there?


i know there are kits, there is a guy on zine running upgraded stuff, but it looks to be alot mroe hightech than what i wanna do....

something simple like that is fine

If the B5 are like the B5.5 passat calipers, no, they wont. They are pretty differnt. Its to bad the ecstuning rotors are expensive as hell, they would be a well worth the extra money to have a 2 peice rotor.
