I haven't had drilled so I cant say anything about that. I did notice though that pedal feel stays more consistent with the J-hooks than stock. Might be because of the extra cooling.

The brakes do feel like they have more bite to them, even on the street pads that are currently on the car. Feels like I'm tearing the pads apart, like the rotor is just digging into the pad. Obviously its not, but that's the best way I can describe it and the very slight increase in brake noise.

Awesome thanks for the info! I'll be looking to do brake upgrades next so I'm interested in how these work...
