hey guys, just got back from Laguna Seca today.
I got a new PB with the Macan's and I'm happy to say that my car is about 2.5 seconds faster.
These are the only real differences from my previous best set in Jan 30, 2021:
- Tires are now 30% remaining (same set of A052's that were brand new in Jan), less grip than before.
- Clubsport S knuckles, no alignment done but I'm guessing it has the advertised 0.8 degree more camber than it had before
- Macan caliper with R4 pads vs EBC blues on PP brakes. 0.3mm titanium shims
- RBF600 instead of RBF660 before
- No power upgrades and no suspension changes not listed here.
- I can now confidently full throttle through turn 1 without fear of fade and running off.
- Temperature is about the same
On track, the pedal IS higher and engagement is a bit softer than PP, but there is NO fade, No boiling coolant, and I brake hard and I brake late.
I am not happy with the pedal but it did not at all prevent me from doing well on the track. I cannot comment about the modulation as I was regularly kicking in the ABS so it was modulating for me as I'm traction / tire limited.
I have no desire for more braking ability.
