iSweep Pads on Track for non-PP

Has anyone tracked the iSweep brake pads available through ECS (considering either 2500 all around or 3000 up front and 2500 in back)? I have a non-PP GTI and plan on doing 2-3 track days this summer. I am planning on getting some lighter wheels (still deciding on tires), RS3 brake air guides, removing brake dust shields, and changing brake fluid (RBF600?). Figure this would be good enough for a couple track days for a novice.

I am having trouble settling on brake pads though. I have found poor performance reviews for EBC yellow stuff when it comes to track duty, Endless MX72 are $370 for just the fronts :eek:, and I cannot find reviews of the iSweep after track duty. Any reviews/info on the iSweep would be much appreciated.

On PP applications the 2500 have been well-reviewed. I would assume given the same compound they would perform well. I don't know if I would personally move up to 3000 for the fronts unless you are willing to sacrifice some DD comfort (noise) and performance.

Thanks for the note, good to hear they work well. My only concern would be operating temps which I imagine will be higher for the non-pp. Not sure if the 2500 vs 3000 will make a big difference for this.
