|  Hello all! and brake questio Hello, My wife and I enjoy our AMG! Been in Germany for the past 5 years. Now that I am back in the U.S. I need to replace the brakes. I have found EBC, the red ones. Any thoughts on pads? Good/bad? Thanks. I MISS DRIVING IN GERMANY!!!!! Sorry, but Americans do not know how to drive!! And I have been an American Soldier for 20 years. any good info on putting a supercharger on the 5.5L to get more BHP. I really do not care about the speed limits. Thanks John |

| Welcome to the forum, I've heard good things about EBC but personally never used them. i agree, Europeans in general are better drivers than us Americans, it's too easy to get a driver's license here. Jliu (a member here) has the renntech SC, and several members over at mbworld.org has the Kleemann SC.
