2011 Camaro SS. I have factory rotors and I installed Hawk ceramic pads to cut down on dust. Now when they get hot they squeal like a truck. The factory pads also squealed but now its extreme. I don't need new rotors or pads but I want to get rid of the noise and have good stopping power. Car has been worked with 512 RWHP.

Brake squeal is a common problem on these cars.

The best advice I've seen to get rid of it is this thread in the DIY section:
