I'm trying to upgrade the brakes on my '08 V8 HSE to the supercharged Brembo's. I have the rotors, pads, calipers. I tried to put on the calipers and they would not fit/align to the bolts on the spindle. Turns out the seller mislabeled the calipers as they are really for a ffrr supercharged. Besides purchasing sport supercharged calipers, I've heard that I will also need sport supercharged brake dust shields (does anyone know the part number??) since the supercharged rotor was touching the lip of the HSE brake dust shield, and I also need a new brake booster with vacuum lines. I found the brake booster here: http://www.britishpacific.com/products.php...;year=all. Is that the right part? How do I go about installing that?
Thank you!

i thought all V8's came standard with Brembo brakes ? 07,TDV8,Black, Black Heated leather all round, Rear Entertainment with Headpones & Remote, TV, DVD, Pure Dab Digital Radio, Sidesteps, Adaptive Headlights, sunroof, now working fuel burning heater )))

Might be a US spec thing but all UK TDV8's came with Brembos as per sc RRS gone
Audi SQ5...Gone Audi Q7 S-Line 240 3.0TDI Gone
Audi A6 Allroad Sport 270 3.0TDI

If you mean the 6 Pot Brembo's then you will need the following Brake Shield's;

LLR013665
LLR013666

in the US, all the RRS have V8's. We only have the option for V8 HSE models with regular brakes or V8 supercharged models with the Brembo brakes. I ordered the brake booster and disc shields from parts.com and should be an easy swap.
