Also, Pro Cal installed today. I'm going easy the first couple days though (trying at least).

I installed a set of these on front. Couldn't handle the brake dust anymore from the stock pads. If I get any better braking performance with these, then that's a bonus in my book. While I was at it I cleaned the insides of the rims and rotated them.

Nice. The stock pads dust so bad! I just cleaned them Saturday and they're filthy already. I don't even brake much, I mostly downshift to slow the car

Stopping distance will be compromised. Just FYI.

How about sound? I'll take dust over squeal any day.
Hmmmmmmm.....
Where'd you get that idea

According to the reviews I've read, these pads give of significantly less dust than the stock (Brembo) ones. Also, none of the reviews mentioned anything about them squealing or being any noisier. I guess we'll see.

I was doing a lot of extra downshifting as well to help stay off the brakes. After about 3 days of driving I was getting the urge to clean the wheels because of that darn dust.

The brake dust is driving me nuts as well, but I'm looking at the StopTech Street Performance pads. I don't know about Ford's Brembo applications, but when comparing Subaru STI Brembo's, the stopping power is near identical, but they dust WAY less than the stock pads. I would assume Ford's Brembo's use a similar OE grade pad material.

$1200 for Corsa Extreme?
I paid $647 delivered for Corsa Sport from Maryland Speed. And the Extreme were the same price.
Corsa Sport: $647.32

Corsa Extreme: $647.32
http://marylandspeed.com/corsa-xtrem...17-p-3026.html
Even Full MSRP is $945. Where did you pay $1200? Did you get the Dual-Dual Tips with rear valance? (I don't remember if that is still available or if that was a different brand.)
Even if you include the X-Pipe ($287.70), you'll be at $935.02, which is still a good bit under $1200.
Corsa X-Pipe: $287.70
http://marylandspeed.com/corsa-xo-pi...18-p-3027.html
It would take adding shorty headers to get that price,
like these BBK Ceramic coated for $446.69
http://marylandspeed.com/bbk-shorty-...20-p-4341.html
Chrome ones are about $114 cheaper at $332.49
http://marylandspeed.com/bbk-shorty-...32-p-4340.html
Which rounds out to: $1267.51 or $1381.71 (depending on which shorty headers) ..... I think I just gave away future mods..... on that topic, anyone think this x-pipe and shorty-headers will induce drone? I have no drone now with the Corsa Sport.
