So I just installed StopTech slotted rotors and Hawk HP+ (not HPS) pads, and I have a different problem...
If I stand on the pedal, I'm actually able to lock up the wheels for a good second before ABS kicks in and saves my butt. Shortly thereafter I hear the chattering - presumably the pump running to re-pressurize the system?
But, really, should I be able to lock up the wheels? Is there any tweaking of the brake system that can be done so that a full panic-brake stand on the pedal doesn't turn the car into a hockey puck?
