Default Drilled/Slotted rotor users, got a ?
I have the Rotorpros drilled/slotted rotors on.
When I brake real hard, like panic stop, or like road course braking Im gettin a nice growl out of them. Otherwise they are quiet.
Is this normal?

If you're stopping straight and true and the car is STOPPING...you're fine...keep in mind...you're really stepping on them.

I have been hearing a new noise with my new dimpled and slotted rotors.....

when I apply the brakes I am hearing a "whoooooooze....." sound......

actually sounds very nice ~ !

Had a "PRO" ride in it with me.....told me that just the "air escaping from your brakes"......

Your Pro guy doesn't have a clue...
The rotors are actually whisling to your new Pink calipers.

Yeah Baby, yeah!

I agree, the pink calipers are quite hot! Pictures don't do them or the wheels justice!
