8-Piston Front Big Brake Kit

The calipers are constructed from a single billet of aircraft-grade aluminum, ensuring lightweight strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion. The use of aluminum pistons enhances heat resistance and maintains optimal operation. The front Procomp systems utilize 8-piston calipers (for 13" and 14" rotors) which feature an opposed piston design. This design greatly improves pad wear and caliper rigidity compared to factory components. The kit includes two-piece rotors, which offer lightweight construction, fade-free performance, and effective grip for both track and street driving. Customization options for caliper colors and rotor types (slotted or cross-drilled) are available. Included with the kit are SC5 Street Pads, formulated for optimal performance in street and occasional track use. These pads offer a significant reduction in brake dust (50% or more compared to race pads) and minimize noise and rotor wear, with optimal operating temperatures between 194°F - 1022°F. Additionally, D.O.T. compliant stainless-steel braided brake lines are standard, providing a firmer pedal feel, quicker pedal response, and preventing expansion under pressure compared to stock rubber lines. This specific kit is designed for the 1996-2003 Audi A3. It is crucial to confirm fitment for your specific vehicle year, make, model, and trim to ensure proper installation and performance. If there are any concerns about fitment, it is recommended to contact customer support before placing an order.
