C7 RS6 Brake Upgrade

Hi Peeps,
thought I'd put a quick post out about my RS6 Brake Upgrade ...
I bought a set of RS6 calipers and Discs from Glen (Revolution) a few weeks ago, took the car up there and his guys fitted them, what can I say ... wow... this is how the car should have been from the factory. It feels like a totally stock setup, not over braked in anyway, but now with plenty of stopping power.
This is a 'bolt on' upgrade, although I think they also needed to change the flexi lines to accommodate the different mounting points. I also asked them to upgrade the brake fluid to handle the additional heat when I track the car (not very often).
if people are wanting more stopping power without the cost of upgrading to ceramics this is worth a look, very effective.
I'm booked at rockingham next week, will let you know if they hold up. I'll also be running yellow stuff pads for the track day.
Thanks Glen
cheers
