Not 100% true TBH.
Initially 2 piece discs are more expensive to buy than 1 piece but after the initial out lay the replacement costs are similar.
With your set up I would at least be running 2 piece.
Also 2 piece discs are 3Kgs lighter than OEM 1 piece, this giving less rotational mass and less unsprung weight.
Less rotational mass is easier to accelerate and decelerate, and less unspring weight allows more effective controlling of the suspension due to less initial mass trying to be damped, and therefore inproves the handling capabilities.
OK. I was thinking over to my bikes, where the gyroscopic forces that stabilise the bike at speed are reduced as you lower unsprung rotational mass and make it easier to turn in, but that's probably more to do with leaning the bike over than actually changing direction?
beware of boxter-s 993 rears... wrong size pistons for your master cylinder.
they will feel terrible, hard, non-servo assisted type feel.. avoid
AP's good, Brembo's good
Lighter disks "feel" lighter and more responsive when turning the steering, as you have less flywheel effect from the lighter spinning mass.. just the same as lightweight wheels vs often very heavy replica wheels.. ruins the feel and turn in of the car..
Easy Buchu, its Micka (got the blue micra sr), got a Ibiza Cupra R in Black now aswell running 230bhp, well was running until i blew the turbo, have you got any parts for me, ko3s turbo etc... ring or text b 07749 131450 Micka, Im near Green Lanerz, near u.

Got a copy last night. Car looks great and great write up too.
cheers mate yea its a cool write up but dont about the supertech inlet manifold wat they wrote lol
Car is looking good, shame there wasn't any figures for people to see how fast the car is, like 1/4 mile times, 0-60 times etc etc
thats just two of the things that was impossible to do in the leon due to ridicilous wheelspin.hopefully now the racelogic traction control is getting fitted i should get way better results
Bought the Redline mag earlier, your car is lovely and gets a good write up too Well done to you and the Backdraft lads!
