10-4. So if I wanted something with a little more initial bite than the HPS offer, what would you recommend?

What did you do to your mk7 today?

Others will have to weigh in. I went EBC red ceramic to get rid of the dust. And I know there’s haters, but I like them so far….. rears only though. Girodisc street up front
Honestly with not knowing how your Stoptech BBk feels now, I would not be sure. Do you have the stoptech pads that come with that kit?

I don't, I bought it used and rebuilt and powder coated them. I had StopTech Sport (309) pads in the ST-41, and those had more initial bite than the HPS in the ST-60. The HPS feel very linear and progressive from 10% brake pressure all the way to ABS lock up. They feel good for what they are, an OEM replacement street pad, but I think I'd like something a bit more aggressive on initial braking input.
Hmm, maybe try a Pagid or Brembo?
100% agree. I hate mine too. Garbage.
I used to run ds2500 which I liked, aside from the excessive brake dust. Once their prices went way up a few years ago, I switched to porterfield R4-S. They feel great for the street, less dust than the ferrodos, and almost half the price. Only downside is that I don't think they would hold up well for a light track day like the ferrodos did, but none of those recently.

I've installed my factory rack with the Inno wedge box (13 cu ft). Ready for our snowboard season! This cargo box is the perfect fit for the mk7 size and proportion and I love how the lines of this box matches the lines on the hood and the end of the box match the rear wing. This Inno wedge is an injected mold super rigid and strong, nothing to be shy next to a Thule (that I previously own). When the box is installed, the wind noise from the rack become almost inaudible. I went out with my dslr camera to remind me how much better it is vs an iphone...

Jesus. For that kinda money it better make the car fly. Was hoping it to be the iSweep so I can actually see non-product pics of it.
