It sounds great! I'm considering picking up another 986 and doing an Audi 2.7t swap. I would be interested in your thoughts on the v-8 vs the v-6 choice.

Yes, the car is a 2000S and had 67000 miles on it when I replaced the pads. I did use the updated pads (I think those might be the only ones available at this point). The new pads are much lighter in...
