What booster # did you put in?

One possibility is that you've got too much booster for the stock caliper and rotor which can trigger ice mode and you could be overheating your pads giving a longer pedal feel.

If you haven't already, consider a booster with less aggressive ratio. PCA Club Racing just approved 996.355.923.90 booster with 997.355.910.30 Master Cylinder.

I have slotted rotors up front and pfc pass along with the stock master cylinder . I do think the soft pedal is potentially related to hear build up. The front calipers were poorly painted at some point in its past and I am guessing that they have never been rebuilt. Hoping new seals and maybe Pistons depending on their condition will have apositive impact. Likely also put a better cooling rotor up front - open to recommendations
