Brakes
When I start out from a stop and slowly let off my brakes they make a weird noise almost like grinding. My V6 didn't make that sound is it the Brembos?

Yep, I've stopped easing off them and I just wait a half second longer and let go completely and quickly.

It will do evan more when you do not drive the car for a a few days , but only for a few seconds .

Indeed, high performance does mean that if you do not use them in a high performance manner, you may suffer a high pitch squeel/grind/whachamacallit. Applying your breaks more heavily when stopping will help eliminate this.
The only true solution is to get ceramic breaks which are more expensive, but overall are better break pads. I'm letting my first pair wear out... but my next set will be ceramic.

The Brembos are going to throw a lot more break dust than the standard Camaro braking system. This is normal and of course another characteristic of the Brembo high performance brakes.
