My tsb replacement pads took several hundred miles to break in. They didnt replace rotors just the pads.
less dust for sure, no squeek but the breaking isnt what Id like.
so ill look into the stoptech and carbotechs as alternates for my spirited street and country road driving

The brakes were one of the first things I noticed about the car when driving it. If I stomp these like I do on my other cars it will feel like you have been hit from behind or are about to go through the glass. Very powerful brakes reminded me of a C7 vette I drove. I don't want to lose the ability to stop this thing quickly as it is capable of some very real speed. The aftermarket will answer the call.

My RCF with the new squeak free padsfeel as good as the brakes on my 997 GT3. YMMV.

Definitely notice a difference vs. OEM from the factory but work good enough for me

When I upgrade to 2-piece rotors, I will upgrade the pads as well.
