Any one interested in upgrading rear brakes on A4, A6 and S4 to 269mmx20mm?

Well for only $495 you can toss some Alcon Type R's on the rear with 11" OE Rotors...
Turbo 5 offers this kit...I think it's really from Vortrag. Comes with Pagid pads as well...

Really? I though the kit relocated the stock caliper...
from there on out it's used only for parking brake function? Is that one of the more expensive Alcon kit's I'm thinking of?

Straight from the turbo5 site:
Alcon R-Type 2-piston calipers, 11" OEM rotors $1495
So you do loose your parking brake. You can't use the stock A4 caliper on any rotor that's thicker than the stock 10mm one, which means you can't use it on any vented rotor.
