266 combo
Currently running 266 setup on my gti, discs I believe are warped as it brakes a bit lumpy with rotation of the wheel (harsher and softer) when braking gradually and shudders like a bitch through the wheel when braking heavy, so going to get new discs and probably pads at the same time, what's the best combo people have used with this setup as I'm sure some are shocking and others work fantastically, thanks

Good quality oe spec disk from the likes of BREMBO
Pads all depend how you use the car, track days, fast road etc

I bought mintex OE pads and discs for my 106, Mines is a low boost turbo and is about 180BHP
they have served me well for over a year now and the car gets driven hard most times I'm in it.

As above. It's all about pad choice not huge planet sized discs IMO
