SRT-8 Brakes

[fastmax1]

I have had some problems with the Brembo brakes on my SRT-8. A couple of the rotors are heavily scored and they consistantly squeal under moderate braking. Anybody else have this problem? Any fixes?

Also I have ordered a K&N intake (#63-1114) and Jet Chip (#90407) and will let you know how they effect the base-line dyno numbers (386 bhp @ 6000 on mustang dyno). Still looking for an exhaust system, it looks like a custom system for me.

Yes, everybody else has this problem (not so much with the squeaking though)

Personally, I'm waiting for aftermarket ceramic ones, then I'm taking the car to the dealership to get the rotors replaced and installing the pads.

If you take it in there's probably a TSB and you'll get them replaced, only to have them start scoring again.

Your best bet is to wait unless they can ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEE me that the pad compound won't score the new rotors.

Is this problem common to both the SRT8's and 300C's?

Yes, just the SRT-8's. I should have been more specific but I thought this was in the SRT-8 forum section.
