how many rpm was it running? and s4, or s5?
well those rotors have seen 100k street miles, and 2 seasons of racing, plus they have been overheated, and the sleeve came out and hit it, so they were remilled for 2mm seals. then we did some testing with the haltech so they saw some 10k+ dyno runs, but they actually failed on the stock s5 ecu, at 8500.



they are s5 rotors.



the parts replaced were the, rear rotor, e shaft, both stationary gears, center and rear plate, and all the seals on the rear of the rear rotor (melted in!), we had 3 events on the engine

RETed - It looks like your engine bleed on the table. Poor thing.
