Brake Pad Manufacturer (F/R): Project mu
Caliper (F/R): stock
Rotor Size (F/R - IE OEM or specify): stock
Compound (F/R): HC800+
Tires: Federal 595rsr

Feedback:
Good cold bite and initial bite. No bueno for track. In this regard, coming down the front straight at Sow CCW, the stopping power was not as good as Hawk HP+. I assume they are the same classed pads. For a street pad, I think it works very well. If you need to stop quickly while doing 100+mph you should shop for some different pads. Although it feels "sufficient" for me for the lower speed stuff with it's good initial bite. I won't be buying another set, that's for sure.

Scores:
Dusting (1=high-10=low): ?
Cold bite (1=low-10=high): 8
Hot bite (1=low-10=high): 3
Modulation (1=low-10=high): 7
Noise (1=extremely loud-10=quiet): 7
Pad Lifespan (1=short-10=long): (estimate/actual) ?
Does the brake dust with this combination damage the wheels/paint if not cleaned immediately? (Y/N) ?
Brake ducts: (Y/N) No
