[QUOTE="einehund, post: 15598647, member: 67302"] I am in Germany and have been doing Autobahn driving for some time. I would stay away from some of the ceramics as when they are asked too much, they let go and fade almost instantly, and when you see the hazard lights come on and hit a stau, finding out you have no brakes isn't fun. I am switching over the wife's Focus ST to EBC Yellowstuff, and based off their performance, I'll probably be putting them on the Shelby. If I had more coin, I would undoubtedly switch from the 4 piston to the 6 piston brembos, mainly due to the larger rotor size, which will dissipate heat better and provide more braking force. Do NOT get any drilled rotors. I managed to crack 2 sets of the Baer Decela rotors last time I was in Germany with my old '02 Mustang GT that had the Cobra R Brembos. Drilled rotors CANNOT take the super high speed temperature changes that come from panic braking at 150 mph and then cooling off because you speed back up to 140ish (rinse and repeat, especially if on the A 5, A6, A66 or A8!)
