Got these parts in about 2 weeks back. I did rear rotors from ECS with PBR 'metal master' pads. My old rear brakes were shot, so this was a huge improvement. Great pedal feel, and stops pretty fast with those alcons up front. Another plus - it's affordable. I didn't want to do an s8 rear upgrade with the concern of disrupting the brake bias. This worked out well.
Now, the sway bar. After reading all the hype about it, I decided to pick one up. It really keeps the rear end in control. I was looking forward to getting some oversteer, but NOPE - too bad. I'm still happy with it. The handling is much more point and shoot now. No understeer that I can feel.
On another note, those with VAG should log their MAF's. Mine was reading low, and I replaced it. Car runs much better now. Unfortunately, I think I just blew out the new one a day or two back. Damn EVO intake! I gotta get rid of that thing.

that's sick...
x1-racer's project cf heatshield/intake setup. If he decides to mass produce it for us enthusiasts or try a homebrew setup. Many options...those are the only ones that I can think of now. Late
