Stock pads are not Brembo. They are made by Jurid, a Turkish company that makes quite a few OEM brake pads.

Default Project Mu pads

I bought some project mu pads and installed them on front and back of my ISF. I love the pads because they stop well and have very low brake dust. What I don't like is they squeak. They didn't come with shims....I hear a clicking on the front calipers when I stop....followed by squeaking as the car comes to a stop.
Does anyone know what I can do to resolve this?

Thanks!!

I have Carbotech Bobcats as well and I've put about 10k on them. I love them. They don't dust as much as stock pads and I like the brake pedal feel better than stock pads.

I'm running Project Mu front brake pads and have no complaints.

When installed, stock shims were used with the Project Mu pads. I have no clicking noise coming from the pads.
