I'm getting some major low-speed brake squeal from the front brakes, any suggestions/advice?

I did the basic bedding just fine, and tried some higher speed bedding.

What pads?

And what procedure did you follow? Something along the lines of 60 to 20mph 3-4 times and then 80-20mph until you smell your pads? It's also possible to overbed and cause them to always squeel

BP20. I was able to do the ~60-20 a few times but i dont have anywhere for the 80 (there wasn't anything in the instructions for 80mph)

Might be pad specific but thats the general oractice I have seen from a few places (like CSG). I would guess they need a little more heat to properly bed. I followed that for my HC+800 which have a lower temp range then your BP-20 even

But really I would just leave them as unless you keep them up to temp all the time the layer goes away in a week or two and you need to rebed again and its just a pain. You'll learn to tolerate the noise lol

Can you guys comment on specifically what bolts were standard size instead of metric?

All the allen bolts are standard. The bleeders are standard. The brake pad holder bar thingy is standard.

Thanks! Do you happen to remember what size the bleeder screw was?

Yes cause that was the nasty one... Its a 1/4 and you need a tiny tiny wrench for it (which I didnt have)

Had a few minor hickups (the mix of Metric and Standard sized bolts/bleeders/etc. is a bit annoying) but they are on and working just fine.

P.S. sorry about the ride height, my front suspension is currently out for repair/re-valve and will be back soon.

What are the exact specs(stages?) on the front and rear? Looks awesome. I want this for my turbo upgrade plan? The yellow looks great.

I recently installed my front sport performance kit. I'll try to take some pics after work and post this evening.
