Manufactured in China, no big secret, the box it comes in is covered in chinese writing, its also very evident that the box has never been opened within the UK.
Nick Vaughn is a lifelong forge fan and fitted them to his 8L Track S3, he sort of regrets it lets say....Forge superb engineering for their mainstream products but pads and discs need to be expensive and last or cheap and disposable, soon as you start mixing up the sentences its either very good or very bad.
if you dont want to buy branded quality stuff, then you might as well not bother and spend it on suspension or more engine goodness or a new map. Alternatively run something with cheapy cheap cheap consumables and anticipate swapping them out more frequently.
Nicks setup lasted 3 laps...... £1000 down the crapper
In addition anything over 343mm (13.5") needs to have some element of float if you're going to get them hot, thats BASIC brake tech if the product exceeds that size and is bolted together its all show and no stop and is designed to relieve you of your money and not to stop well
