doh! I just missed this. Now it makes sense, I can bet that what's actually causing it is the compound of the pads themselves to not getting up to temp. And, yes absolutely when you put the anti-squeal stuff on it goes away. The reason why the squealing comes back is because there's friction between the brakes and the anti-squeal stuff just gets rubbed off due to friction. But then again, I could just be over simplifying things as it's late here in Chicago lol and I could just be getting tired.
The other curious thing is that the squealing is only really bad when I have the brakes hot/up to higher temp and I have the wheel turned... which means that there is some sort of odd contact point causing the noise.
