[QUOTE="BlackBolt9, post: 8750922, member: 36489"] I was just coming back to this thread to suggest that the smooth spots on the pads look to me as if they may be glazing a little bit which is typically cause by getting really hot. However you are on pretty good pads which should handle temperature pretty well, so I was going to suggest that maybe you need to work on your cooling ducts a bit. From looking at the pictures, I would agree with your wife that you are not getting as much air as you could be. You are probably flowing close to the 3" diameter of air but you are not getting the increased airflow you would see if it was closed off to the bumper. As of right now, once the hose get backed up it cannot create pressure to force air through because it will just bleed off around the outside. If it was sealed, once the hose because backed up, there isn't a place to bleed off except in from of the bumper cover, this should cause more higher pressure air to force it's way through your brakes. Alos the design of your backing plate could make a difference in this as well. I would see if you could improve it as I think it could help and shouldn't cost a lot of money to do. [/QUOTE]
