The PFC pads have a bit less initial bite than stock BMW pads, though I'm wondering if perhaps it's the shift to slightly more rearward brake bias.

PFC says brake bias is shifted rearward even if stock rear calipers retained or if you switch to the Z-45 rear system (I'm still stock on the rear calipers). Otherwise not too much to report, they work fine in non-track usage and feel very close to stock. Will update with track report at the latest late July (Charlotte Motor Speedway) but hoping I can find a one day event in June.
As you said, I was really hoping a big improvement over the stock on the street too, since I think the stock brake is a bit too soft...

Looks like it is not the case, at least at this moment. Looking forward to your update.
