Just finished a track day at Laguna and used the PF 08 pads for the fist time. Was wondering how much noise is normal. These pads are loud.
They did perform well. No fade issue at all. Stopping distance was much improved over stock pad that I used last time.

This is normal. You shouldn't use these pads for daily use. They're extremely noisy and will chew up rotors quickly.
