I just bought and install the pads, it's the magic pads from girodisc. Used it for like 200 miles or less.
It goes on and off, does not squeak all the time. I can understand the noise made by the brake if we step on them too deep. But the squeak I'm talking here is different, it will go on when I step lightly on the break and again it does not happen all the time.

Some pads squeak, might just be compound, usually hard braking doesn't squeak at all. I wouldn't be concerned at all if light braking squeaks or squeals at all. I would try rebedding your brakes if you've bedded them at all in the first place. Most manufacturers have recommended bedding procedures, but if they don't, do 5 or 6 60 - 5 MPH hard braking stops, let them cool and retest your 'squeak' problems.
Thank you for the reply and advice.
Copper antiseize? Where to get it? I know he sprayed something onto the pads, said to eliminate the squeak.
Its hard to to say not knowing what he used but 99% of the spray on crap never works. Usually the permatex copper or nickel antiseize works as a good high temp lubricant. Usually lubricating the top of the pads where the retaining clip touches and on the sides and back works well along with the stock shims. Somtimes they will get quieter after 500 miles or so and they are properly broken in. Those are known to be almost dead silent pads though so they shouldn't be making noise. Maybe give it a week or so...hawks are noisy at first too.
Btw you can get the copper permatex at NAPA.

Dont spray it.. I have alot pads chemcical to make anti squeak.. and Sythic Lubes.. but most new brake pads have new kinds of shim on back.. dont need use metal shim on it
so you are getting a burning steel smell at 11.0 afr's? I think you need to go to the doctor and have your nose checked out.
take a picture of the ams 2.3 kit you bought to!
