I think it was a big brake upgrade from stock. I have Stoptech rotors on order. I did notice the Stoptech rotors are left/right specific as opposed to the stock replacements. Hopefully the vane design will generate low pressure at the inlets. I have debated trying to make a soft seal between the cooling duct backing plate and the rotor to increase the air pressure at the inlets, but I am not sure what the airflow pattern through rotor looks like or how much excess air flow bypassing the rotor inlets to the caliper/pads is good.
I feel I was faster on OEM brakes.
How about the type of pads being used. Jack's preference is either the Cobalt or PFC. Does not like the Hawk pads we have tried. Our rotors have either been the the stock one that were on the car when we bought it or generic NAPA ones put on prior to Road Atlanta. We haven't experienced the glazing problem Dennis has described.
