When I was running my FMII on the track I used HP+. They were

Once I stopped going to the track I switched to HPS. They were
quiet, clean, and may as well have been made of wood. Terrible feel-
I really hated them.
Weird that I had such a bad experience contrary to everyone else; I've
no explanation for this.
I don't think you are alone. Though not the same car, I went from HP+ to
HPS on the subaru and the feel of the HPS
is very soft in comparison. The initial bite is not there with a dead
feeling post switching.
Its been years since I had stock pads on the WRX, but I gather the HPS
feels similar or a tad better then OEM.
Reason for changing: HP+ is a high friction pad, plenty of dust (I do
clean the car, but its heavy dust that does not like to be washed away
easily), and the accelerated rotor wear I observed which for a street
only car seemed a bit over the top.
