[s-cars] Stumbling at low rpm

Rob,

I recently upgraded too, and I picked up a set of Porsche sensors, connected
them to the leftover pigtails from the old Audi brake pads. I then found
that some Porsche pads do not have a fitting for the sensor.

For instance...
	Mintex Reds do
	Hawk HPS do not

I ran the Mintex Reds briefly, then switched over to the Hawks. Had to zip
tie the wiring up out of the way...will probably remove it soon.

So, before you go to the trouble if integrating the Porsche sensors, find
out if your selected pads can take them...
