Better brakes than factory junk, it's that
simple.
I'm guessing, but sounds like you have rear pads
and rotors to?

here goes...When you went to the Wagner pads they are harder or softer than the original. So, now the rear breaks get more or less pressure when you step on the pedal due to the friction change up front. You have changed the balance of breaking power from front to rear. The proportioning valve that splits pressure only sees pressure not performance.
I'm not familiar with the term "Power Breaking", what is it that you do? Like dragstrip "Line-Lock" where the front wheels are locked and rears free to spin?
