Project Mu Type PS PP Brembos loud af
Hello just wondering if anyone has any experience with these pads, they’re advertised as being a compromise between street and performance - good stopping but quiet and less dust than an outright performance pad. I installed them using the existing Brembo shims, everything fit perfect obviously, I did the recommended bedding process, had a hpde the next day and they worked fantastic, better than the factory Brembo pads, but gadDAMN they are LOUD. Like embarrassing, changing the way i drive, rolling through stop signs to avoid using the brakes, kind of loud. So my question is: is this just how they are? Did i miss something while installing them? Is there something i can do to make it better? I appreciate any input

Sometimes that's the way it is. My Brembo brakes are loud, and I'm on the OEM compound.
You can try bedding them in again, or touch-up the contact points with a little bit of brake grease. Other than that, you can just apply more braking force over a shorter distance to keep them outside of the noise point. I just live with mine, other people be damned

I still have to fit them, I hope they'll not be so noisy.
Almost 0 noise with stock shitty pads. Do you have stock disks? |

PS is not meant for track use at all. They may have been glazed.
The factory Brembo calipers are fairly noise prone in general. |
