I really like my Ferodo DS2500's. Not expensive, good bite, don't fade, good longevity, and much better than stock. They produce a little more dust than stock, but nothing crazy.

Get the fedoras

I had hawk hps on the 05. They made an odd clunck backing out of the driveway.

I have girodisk magic pads that have excellent initial bite but just seem to have a strange "fall flat feeling" after that. No fun.

Hey guys, I'm looking to replace the stock triple gauge cluster in my 06 MR. I want to stay with an in dash solution. Plus the fact that I'm running 25lb of boost, I want a gauge that will handle it.

Do you guys have any suggestions?

I was looking at the Prosport gauges like the ones in this post.

those prosports look good man. its really just a matter of preference. with the exception of wideband and boost, unless you're running a time attack car, gauges are basically cosmetic.
go with what you like and what you think looks good. the functionality and accuracy of the gauges is going to be pretty similar on every brand. if you are that concerned about what your engine is doing, plug in a computer and do some logs.

jscspeed.com has a cheap and really clean looking gauge pod bezel for "in dash" like what you want. plus those pro sports look 60mil, jsc carries 60mil. gauge bezels are hard to find bigger than like 52mil in my experience

If only they'd let him race in it.
