Installed StopTech Trophy Brakes 380mm/355mm kit

I just installed a set of the StopTech Trophy 380mm front and 355mm rear kit!

I haven't put many miles yet, but I can already feel the improvement in pedal feel. The bite point feels higher up and slightly firmer. I can't wait to get this system on the track!

We did run into a minor issue where the front left corner was shuttering under braking. I e-mailed StopTech at 8pm that evening and Pat from StopTech e-mail be back that same evening! Excellent customer service!

It turns out sometimes after they change out the tooling, it can leave a finish or a burr that needs to be smoothened out. Sure enough after a few hard stops, it went away. Today I bedded in the pads and I didn't notice any shuttering.

I just wanted to share with you all some photos I took of the install.

Noah @ Cohesive Garage did the install and did a great job!
