Guess so -___-
If anyone asks I say there race pads, they haven't warmed all the way up.

Mine squeak also, but they are the cheapest pads I could find. Even my stock pads squeaked though. That's the way baseball go...

Really strange that they aren't giving you enough adjustment. Glad to hear MM is giving you some Customer Support. When I stopped by their shop in San Louis Obispo the owner seemed more than happy to show me around and answer all my questions even though I wasn't buying anything. Pretty cool guy!

Rattle clips on, squeeks and squeels are gone!! no chirping noises anymore too! this is the most solid my car has ever been. Funny what 10 dollars and 30 minutes can do.

Yeah i got in touch with mm, they were very friendly and helpful. The conclusion they gave me was my k member wasn't squared... So im just gonna forget about it for now. Cause i don't have the means or money to get a k member squared. Plus its probably not worth it on a factory one..

If you had $700 to spend, what kind of " get up and go" parts would you get?
I already have gears, catless midpipe, and catback..

Tune? Cai? throttle body? Plenum? Suggestions welcomed.
