Lynk & Co 09 Big Brake Kit Upgrade / TTSPORT Classic 8657
The Lynk & Co 09 is the brand's flagship SUV, built on the same SPA platform that underpins the Volvo XC90. The MHEV version pairs a 2.0T turbo engine with a 48V mild-hybrid system and a BorgWarner all-time all-wheel-drive system, putting out 254 hp and 350 Nm of torque through an Aisin 8-speed automatic — good for a claimed 0-100 km/h in 8 seconds. That kind of torque, combined with the vehicle's weight, puts real demand on the factory brakes. To match the powertrain with braking that can actually keep up, the owner upgraded to the TTSPORT 8657 big brake kit.
Vehicle & Kit Specs
The build swaps in a TTSPORT 8657 forged six-piston front caliper, a 380x34mm high-carbon heat-treated rotor, and TTSPORT stainless steel brake lines, running behind the car's 20-inch wheels.

Why It Works
Forging the TT8657 caliper body instead of casting it cuts unsprung weight at each corner while keeping the structure stiff under load. That stiffness matters: a caliper that flexes under hard braking wastes pedal travel and softens feel. With six pistons sized 38/34/30mm and a combined piston area of 54.96 cm², the caliper clamps down harder and more evenly across the pad, which sharpens bite and shortens the time it takes the car to respond to pedal input.
The 380x34mm rotor is heat-treated and Dacromet-coated for corrosion resistance, with a curved-vane vented design that pulls more air through the disc under hard, repeated stops. Better airflow means the rotor sheds heat faster, which is what actually holds off brake fade during aggressive driving or a long descent — the curved vanes also help clear brake dust off the disc face, which keeps things quieter and reduces vibration at the pedal.
- Forged six-piston caliper for stronger, more even clamping force
- 380x34mm heat-treated rotor for better heat capacity and fade resistance
- Stainless steel brake lines for a firmer, more consistent pedal
