Second, you may need to experiment with your pad compounds. I experienced a lot of judder/shudder with the Wilwood street/track compound. I corrected this by switching to Porterfield R4-S on the street and R4’s on the track.
you seems very educated with the brakes, which brake kits are you using now? i was going to purchase full set 6/4 wilwood before purchasing the twinturbo kit and now your comment making me think otherwise, should i be better with akebono? I am not going to use my car as a track but very occasional sprint driving
