Ferrodo or Project Mu

[Jonno]

Just about to fit new T3 rotors to my 2006 BF XR6T. I have been using Ferodo DS performance pads and have been very happy. Does anyone have experience with the Projecr Mu NS400 pads?  Will they be an improvement over the DS Performance?

Was happy with the Project Mu, but had never tried the DS.

Ferodos are dusty, sometimes noisy, stop very well.
Usually you'd go DS2500 fronts and DS performancemce rears.

I was told to try Forza  FP3 pads. any1 got feedback on those? apparently not harsh on rotors and not too dusty. and said to be higher performance than the other 2 mentioned above/

The stopping power of the DS Performance pads is outstanding.

 

But they are dusty and I get though one set of DBA T3 front rotors per set of pads.

Loving the low dust of the Project Mu NS400s in my Brembos (DBA T3 rotors).  Also handle my spirited driving OK.  Will probably stick to these unless doing track days.

steve likes driving while spirited.

Has anyone switched from DS Performance to Project Mu?  If so how do the Mu pads compare to the DS Performance?

I used HF DS years ago, found them to be dusty/noisy and overly aggressive on the discs for no rear benefit in terms of stopping power.

 

I highly rate the NS400's and will be running them once my current hc800's have expired. They (the ns400's)are a great all round street pad. But you can over tax them if you are using the car in motorsport applications, but the same can be said for most street pads to be fair.

Thanks Ralph. Yes, the DS Performance are dusty and they chew trough the disks. But they do stop.  

 

I'll go for DBA T3s all round, and try the Project Mu pads.
