You're not really gaining anything by using those calipers, except for unsprung weight (lighter caliper). I'd switch back to the Porsche calipers- use the Carrera A calipers since it appears you have the larger Carrera 24mm thk rotors installed. The Wilwoods don't look like they're functioning well either- more piston extension on the outboard side than the inboard.

If nothing else, i'd get a proper caliper retaining pin in there. That cotter pin isn't necessarily bad, but it looks like a hassle to bend, pull, and reinstall when a pad change is needed. Proper smooth pin with a retaining clip should be easily available from Wilwood.

Ideally you'd switch to SC calipers
