I've had some squeeling issues, I've been on the phone with Brembo and also had the vehicle inspected today, but long story short:

Car exhibits loud squeel 5-0mph light to light-medium pedal effort. Can remove noise by letting up on pedal and increasing stopping distance considerably (not good in traffic). Surprisingly Loud.

Pads look fine, rotors exhibiting normal wear.

Had my hubs checked for play, couldn't find any.

I'm using the pads included in the brembo BBK. I don't have a part number. Per brembo, the young woman I spoke with recommended a different pad compound that they recommend for street/autox use in cases where noise is an issue.

I know a less aggressive pad would help, but is there anything I'm missing here? I know lots of other people running this kit without complaints of noise.

High performance pads are noiser and tend to squeal, especially when not bedded properly.

If this issue sounds like standard brake squeal, then apply some brake pad lube to the BACK side of the pad. (Sold at all normal Auto Parts Stores)
