Just got these in the mail:)

The front rotors are huge, I will probably install them next week, can't wait. Does anyone know the torque spec on the bolts holding the calipers?, and what about the wheel bolts, does anyone know the bolt torque on them?,

Real Nice upgrade! What type of pads will you be running? I've read the 2014 msport have more bite and will fit both msport/ mperf. calipers. Might want to look into that!

I'm going to try the stock pads, if I don't like them, I will switch them. Has anyone installed SS lines with the M performance kit?, I'm curious to hear feedback if they actually made a difference, however, in most cases it would be hard to tell if you install them from the start, these is no base comparison.

I installed the brakes myself, and I can say I'm pleased. I have some observations, I have the m sport package, and it turns out my car came with the m sport brake dust covers, no need to replace those, also the rear brake covers are slightly different, however they dont touch the rear calipers, so no need to replace those. I noticed the brake feel improved quiet a bit, no more dead space when pressing the pedal, however the brakes require more input now to stop, which is apperantly normal from what I have read.

Nice work! I hear you need to do some coding with these? Maybe that is why you need more pressure now?
