Great writeup thanks, Siluro.
I had the same kit from Godspeed and after changing to braided lines and dot5 as well, was massively underwhelmed, frankly.
Stopping power and "stickiness" just isn't there for me. In the wet, well, I've been lucky to avoid rear-ending a couple of times.
Is it better than OEM? Definitely, for the reasons you describe above. Was it worth the money? For me, definitely not.
I'm changing to APs as we speak.
Maybe it was my expectations that were wrongly set in advance but I just didn't get the stopping power that I felt I was promised.
