Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    ????

    If the brakes are the same, how can red calipers make for a 10% braking improvement? Bigger pistons? Pads?

      In fact, Blue calipers are the best for real braking performance, a la R32

              But they're bigger. Rumour has it that they tried red calipers on the R32 brakes and the test driver went through the windscreen so had to change to blue to reduce performance

                      This comment proves that GT TDI drivers have bigger balls though
