I'm taking it easy at the moment for at least 200kms until the rotors & pads are properly bedded in.

Race brakes in Sydney recommended this set up with the stock calipers.

Pulled my standard turbo off. Drilled and tapped my 0.7 housing for boost nipple. Sussed how I'm going to make the actuator bracket. Decided I'm never running the turbo bracket again

RICFORD I just did the same replaced RDA to T3's but running street road track.

My old set up just didn't work the rda killed my pads which were SRT.

Ive done around 90-100kms and notice an improvement already

Drove it 2 days in a row.

And for anyone considering changing the hose between the 044 and process west surge tank. Keep it flex, rubber or silicon. Kev sent me solid fittings and now its quite noisy. I don't care as with intake and exhaust I can only just hear it. But I will guarantee most people will think its way to loud. Any rate if it pisses me of its easy to change back.

One bonus is, it will be quickly evident if the pump ever fails.

I've noticed the difference too, the braking feels like it has more bite and no brake shudder which is a relief.

So far so good.

Shudder returns if your bushes are flogged out (upgraded to DBA4000 myself with crappy bushes years ago).

Ask yourself..Is my bush flogged?

I fixed it 80% with new rotors but the cause of the shudder was always the bushes I'm pretty sure.

After getting superpro bushes fitted it went away and hasn't come back.
