Default PFC 11 pads

I have been using PFC 08 pads front and back on my Cayman S. Can anyone add their experience changing to PFC 11 pads from PFC08. Contemplating using them up front.

PFC 11 is the compound being delivered on the 991 Cup car from the factory. 11 has more initial bite than the 08.
The modulation and release are similiar. The 11s will not last nearly as long as the 08s. However the 11s are much more rotor friendly.
11 is described as PFCs sprint race pad and the 08s are described as their endurance pad.
Forget all other compounds shown on PFCs site. Currently 12, 13 and 14 compound are not being made
in any Porsche pad shapes. 14 compound (supposed replacement for 97)was being made in the 0345 pad shape last year...but no longer.

How do these compare to the Pagid RS19 and 29 yellows?

Having used neither 08, 11s , RS 29 or 19s I can only qualify my answer by saying of all the Pagid rs29 users that have switched to PFC
08.....0nly 1 said he did not like the 08s. A few points on which everyone agrees. PFC has more initial bite than RS29 or 19 and PFC 08
Lasts longer than RS. 29 or 19.
PFC is the brake partner of Porsche Motorsports. All 991 Cup Cars are delivered with PFC rotors, calipers and pads.
When I raced I used PFC 01 (predecessor to 11 compound). I really liked the pads and had no problem becoming a PFC distributor based on my experiences with them.
Braking is a very personal experience. Many have been reluctant to switch. And for this reason I also sell Pagid.

I use 11 on the front, 08 on the back in my 968. Great combo IMHO. Can't speak for the cayman, but I used to use Pagid Orange all 4 corners and I like my current setup more.

When I went from PCCBs to the StopTech Trophy BBK kit I initially used PFC11s front and rear. I have since gone to RS29s and prefer the modulation and durability. Unfortunately they are being replaced by the RSL1 and RSL2. They aren't making the shape I need for the ST40 caliper on the rear of my car.

They are not being replaced by the RSL1/2 at all - we have the 29s in stock

I have used PFC,Hawk, and Pagid over the years...I prefer the PFC for my usage and style...Curious to know if anyone has used Emdless brake pads? Clark or Craig any opinions?

Used PFC for years and jumped to Cobalt last year, XR2 Front, XR3 rear. I'm very happy (with both) and can't say there is a huge diff between the two, but it does appears rotor life is longer with Cobalt and they are quieter.

01's are my favorite pad of all time and the 11's are their replacement and are excellent. Unlike Pagid, they take much less bedding in and can be run literally to the backing plate with no degradation of performance. Pagids become junk after about 60-70% wear.

Brant....my opinion on Endless.....I have emailed them 4 times with no response. ????? Their distribution is definitely lacking. Have some GT3
And Cup Guys that have used them and switched to PFC. They unquestionably are a quality pad.... Very hard to find and very pricey.
Most of my GT3 and Cup guys that have used Pagid RS29 all echo Dave's sentiments about the pads going away at about 50%.
