Thanks all.
All I need to do now is decide if I actually want to do it.
I think I'll hook the boat up, take it for a drive round and see what I think.
It won't be as loaded as it can be, but I'll have an idea.

I’ve got the 6 pots as standard on my sport fitted with EBC yellow stuff and I wouldn’t fancy stopping with anything else. The yellow stuff have made a massive difference compared to OE pads.
I’m no brake expert but surely the swept area isn’t as important as the contact surface area? The 6 pot pads are twice the size of the standard.
Where did you buy the yellow stuff pads and what’s the brake dust like?

I got them on line but I can’t remember who it was. I can go through my emails if you like.
Dust is minimal but I have noticed my discs are wearing quicker than they would with standard pads ( but I am probably using the brakes more aggressively now as they are that much better).012MY RRS 5.0 Supercharged Autobiography (Current)

Seen them available in a few places but the price ranges from £145 - £200. I got a pair of good discs with the callipers, unsure of the make but they will do for now.
