Has anyone tried the Ferodo DS1.11 for aggressive street use? How is the cold bite on those compared to the Ds2500s?

DS2500 pads are *very* capable high performance pads, it's pretty hard to imagine anyone needing anything more on the street, unless of course you drive around town like an F1 driver on a closed race course on r-comp tires. DS1.11 pads are *track* pads, and require heat to be effective, and require super sticky tires to realize the benefits. Running them on the street, like most other full-on track pads, would no doubt also be a VERY noisy proposition. If you want to sound like a freight train pulling in to the station at every stoplight, be my guest though :-)
Assuming you have no air in the lines, fresh brake fluid, and a firm pedal, I'd suggest running stickier tires if you want to stop "harder".
