[Inquiry] Project Mu Pads Squeal

Hey everyone,

I just replaced the OEM brake pads with the Project Mu HC+800 pads on my BRZ with the Brembo PP.
I've driven it like 2 weeks or so and they still squeal really loud unless I do some late brakings or heavy brakings.
Is this normal or I still need some time to bed them in?
I've seen some people say they are noisy no matter what or 0 noise since day one.
Just wanna know which one is true.

Thanks!

Stock '13 They're on the sqeaky side. Not like a locomotive brakes but a bit annoying. "Bed the brakes!" No shit! lol

Are you Ku Klux Klan?

I ran through two sets of these and they were always noisy and VERY dusty to me unless I was bedding them in often.

That is my experience with the PP brakes. Noisy and dusty.

Same experience. Excellent performer, squeaky unless after the discs rust a bit or I brake hard. Dusty, but I deliberately have matte black wheels anyway.

tremendous cold bite. If that's worth all the drawbacks, then have at it!

Edit: with all this stuff going on is nice to know there is a place and people that dont even know what Ku Klux Klan is. It nowhere in their consciousness. I think I'll visit someday, Toronto. After Colorado.
