I'm desperate for any suggestions! I installed Brembo slotted rotors and Project MU NS pads back in December. A friend and I installed them. We did not put on the Brake Quiet. I also did not bed in the brakes. Since then, I have put on the red Brake Quiet twice. This has helped the problem of brake squeeling for a few days, and then it comes back. I beded in the brakes last week. They were quiet, but the squeels are back.
Also, when I have the wheels turned, the brakes are squeeling. Why would there be any pressure applied to the rotors while the wheels are turned? I'm so confused.
Does anyone have ANY suggestions?

Do you have aftermarket suspension and/or is the car dramatically lowered? Check the inside face of the rotor for any witness marks where something may be rubbing, particularly the lower control arm if the car is aggressively lowered. Another thing to check is if the suspension may be pushing the dust shield into the rotor during cornering.
Bed-in is also critical to keep squealing minimized, but that seems seperate of the aggrevated noise while turning.
Good luck-

i had this problem on stock brembos on my G with like 5k miles on it.
other things i noticed were that the squeak got louder when the brakes were hotter. after my sunday drives the squeaks were really loud and in rythm with my speed. if i turned one way they would squeak. straight ok turn the other way ok. when hot, it might even squeak when going straight.
i ended up changing pads to hawks and that fixed the problem.
since then ive switched to axis ultimates.
20+ k miles and the problem hasnt returned.
