I'm not saying they're bad, I'm just saying the stockers from ford are cheaper,quieter, and give off less dust.

once my hawk pads were bedded in i never had any noise from them and the dust was about half of what the stock ford pads produced. I went from cleaning my chrome bullitts 2 times a week down to once every week.

Default Cobra brake kit

I would say go with the cobra brake kit. I got it front and rear and it seems pretty great compared to stock. I am still breaking it in, so I have no numbers to prove it. I got it all for around $750. Just shop around. fyi, the fronts are easy to install, the rears are more difficult.

looks like the cobra brakes are the path, where did you get them all for 750

That's the site, I have no idea why the brakes are sooo much cheaper than everywhere else, but they are.

+1 on the Cobra brakes. I've got the 10th anniversary Cobra brakes on front and back and I couldn't be happier with them. The red powdercoated calipers look great and the stopping power will make you say, "Holy sh*tballz!"
