I have a 4S and I feel the brakes aren't good enough. To be fair, I daily a cayenne turbo with the PSCB's and they bite immediately. Porsche serviced it and stated they are perfectly fine. While waiting, I test drove a GTS and felt a better bite than the 4S's. I know I know but I won't trade it in Over seas I see they did a serious brake upgrade.


Anyone else upgrade the brakes? Or are there any options to look into?
thanks

 

Suppose you could try a set of turbo brakes ?

 

what compound of brake are you running? semi metallic, ceramic, etc? Each pad will give a different feel, also based on how your rotors are, will also determine the "bite" your talking about. My PTT had semi metallic and I was not a fan ot those, I went to ceramic pads and the feel and "bite" feels a lot more responsive.

 

Have you tried a brake pad bed in procedure to remove some glacing?
If not, try that first.

 

Thanks guys

As far as I know, they're still original but looking forward to trying ceramic pads next.
I mentioned that suggestion of higher friction pads and managing tech said, "porsche's set up is the best".
I guess I'll get this done somewhere else 😀

 

Ceramic pads are unlikely to have better bite. They dust less, though, if that is a priority. Generally they have a lower performance rating than organic or metallic pads and are never recommended for track use because they can’t take the heat.
