If the new pads have a higher coefficient of friction he will experience more initial bite and less pedal effort to achieve the same amount of braking force.
yes, i know what new pads do, but that doesn't make it any better. hell, i prefer a looser pedal; easier to modulate.

Yeah but you were saying he wouldn't notice the difference, and I'm saying he would.

i didn't say he wouldn't notice i difference. i said they will function the same. a firmer pedal is just a different means to the same end.
