Indeed! I used them on my C5Z then moved on to DSUNOs and frankly cannot recall how they compared except for the 1.11 having much flatter torque. They are noisy, dusty and when cold not recommended. To/from would be ok, but nothing DD wise imo. And of course Ferodo website warns against it. Never had any taper issues except for xp10 i tried once on my SS.
GMG, a pad you may wanna try is DS2500. It should give you a bit more torque without frying things. I think Strano sells them (at good prices). Might be worth a try and see? Cheers!

PS Hope Yanbags chimes in here as well re his SS experience. But again, when considering pads one MUST also consider the venue. I had run ST43 which cooked my fluid and almost set my wheels on fire (seriously) on a tight track in just few laps, but they did ok at Mosport where apart from 2 corners out of 10 braking is rather light and a long straight cools things pretty good between laps. So it all depends...
