**Need info on how to break Porterfield R4S brake pads in after install**
I just bought Porterfield R4S brake pads for my Acura Integra GSR. It did not come with instructions on how to properly break them in. These carbon kevlar pads have to be broken in a certain way. How do you break the pads in properly?
Do you make a few easy stops after install? Do you make a few hard stops after install? Do you brake until you get them hot?

I did 5-6 very gently stops from 20mph to 0. Then let them cool off for a while before driving again. The instructions say to wait 1 hour but I was a little impatient and only waited about 20 minutes.
