Brake service at TPE in Jessup, Maryland

I started a thread before about a sinking brake peddle,link below. I took the car to a Porsche specialist, rather than the dealer. The brakes are now much better. They completely replaced the fluid with DOT4 and they put on pads made for a GT3. Now when you hit the brakes they have a good initial bit that gives confidence in stopping. And the pedal is much harder. Before this change I had the car to the track, it stopped well but the pedal feel was soft and got softer with hard driving. I haven't had it to the track yet with the new brakes but I'm sure they will be much better. I mention this because its a simple change to make and realy improves the car.

The work was done at Turbo Performance Center in Maryland. This is a world class shop and I wanted to give them credit for their good work.
