Default TT non S cars brake and exhaust?

What size are the brakes on the Non-S TT's? Is it same as TTs?

Also does the non-S car QUATTRO have exhaust out of both sides in the rear or just one side?

I have an 08 3.2 with dual exhausts at either end on my Quattro and the brake size is the same as the TTs...13" front rotors 12"back rotors. I read on one of the sites they are identical except tts has a sticker on the caliper.

The TTS has one inch larger brakes in the front and rear compared to the non-S 2.0T model. It's more than just a sticker.. Detailed specs are found by simply going to audiusa.com

2.0T Quattro TT has 2 wimpy tail pipes, both on the left. They look a bit better with the aftermarket chrome tips.

All TTs have separate tail pipes on the left and right starting with the 2011 model.

Yes but compared to the 3.2 they are the same! I just purchased Adams rotors drilled and slotted w/black hats and they are the same!

The 3.2 hasn't been available for a couple of years. I assume the OP is asking about the current offerings.

I drove a plain TT today....observations.

The steering wheel is same shape as my current R32's but it's not padded or as thick....I prefer the R's wheel.

Steering is very very light....needs to be tightened up-can this be adjust with a VAG Com and a computer?

The suspension needs to be firmer....but I drive a modified R so every car is too soft to me.

The brakes are smaller than my R's and it is noticeable. They are equivalent to my old GLI's brakes. I prefer the larger TTs' and R's brakes....

There is no spare? Are they all run flat tires? This one had Pirelli's-18's.

The power was good....I'd say it is prob faster than my R.

The R's exhaust is impossible to match! The TT is way too quiet.

The TT would be an adjustment to the interior size cause it's way smaller and tigher.....but cozier...nice interior.

If I were to buy this car, it would need springs, sway bars, exhaust, and wheel/tire changed. This is a month old used car with only 1300 miles on it. That is a hard car to fairly price. Overall, it is a nice car and quirky...which makes it appealing.

UPDATE: I started totalling up the cost, considered the warranty, considered the time and hassle factor of getting things done.....and bought a TT S instead....so far so good.....love it.

Thanks for the advice....will be more questions in the future I'm sure.
