Not like my opinion matters or anything after seeing that MMP uses PFC pads on their Boss 302s, but I can definitely vouch for them. Great product from a great company, excellent customer service.
I ran the PFC 01 compounds on my 2004 CTS-V (on all 4 corners), and I know it's not a Boss 302, but it is still a heavy, high-HP car, so there are a lot of similarities when it comes to braking. The braking is absolutely incredible, I couldnt believe how late I could brake with these; it made the car feel like it weighed nothing in the braking zones. Very easy to modulate, wasnt too bad on the rotors either.
I also drove them on the street for about 100 some miles before and after the events to clean the surface of the rotor, and ended up leaving them on permanently b/c they actually had better cold bite than my stock pads, barely made any noise, and didnt dust too bad either.
Here's a video where I'm chasing a GT-R around Sebring. He smokes me coming out of the corners and on the straights, but I can make up some serious ground in the braking zones. Keep in mind that was my 2nd day ever on track, and I'm not a great driver by any means.
