OEM Textar pads (Turbo S). But I'm a n00b so I'm not too rough on brakes!

I have been running Pagid Orange front and rear, mostly because the previous owner ran them. I haven't tried anything else yet. A few have suggested I should switch to yellow.

Cobalt Friction - XR2 in front and XR3 in the rear. Best pads I've used to date.

I have a 944 NA, at minimum weight and use Porterfield R-4's front and rear. Very easy on the rotors and lots of braking power...Recommended by the car builder, Greg Fordahl
