this is good to here... i just installed the kevlar based EBC red stuff pads on wednesday... so far so good they were $119 for the fronts and $79 for the rear quite a bit more than the mintex... as for breaking power a ton better than the porsche stockers... the dust level has went down quite a bit over stock....

996TWINS will become famous soon enough
Check out www.mintex-usa.com for info. Mintex made different formulations for street, street/sport, track/racing in the past, with the red box being their standard pad. I have bought sport/street pads which have part # M1155 added to end the Mintex part # that gave extra bite with little dust. The M1155 may have been replaced by the Mintex Extreme pads.

Any pad is better than stock. The stock pads suck so bad.

My rear street pads are mintex and I've had ZERO issues with them. I even ran them for one track weekend when the pagids I ordered didn't come in within the time needed...

If they made these for the GT3 front calipers, I'd run them as street pads up front too!

Oh, and ZERO squeel for mine!

Mike
