Hey Racing Brake! I did the update on my 997.1, I am looking for brake pad dampeners to reduce the noise under braking, the existing OEM dampers move excessively in my new thin-walled pistons. What size dampers should I be moving up to?
Fronts OEM: 40/36
Rears OEM: 30/28
Last question: is there a high-temp silicon brake grease/lube that doesn't react with the blue, high-temp piston dust boots?
Thanks!

I'm just wondering what the advantage of thin-walled steel pistons is. Assuming the same heat development during braking, more metal naturally stores more heat (lower peak temperature), while thin-walled pistons inevitably reach higher temperatures and naturally release this heat into the overall system, preferably the brake fluid.
