So, my questions. The car currently has the Touge Factory Duct Kit. Is there an adapter available for the Sprint kit that will let me connect the ducting to put air into the rotors? The Endurance Kit has an adapter, will that work on the Sprint kit also?

Will this kit fit on Enkei RPF1 17x7.5 wheels? If not, what can I do to make it fit?
It'll depend on the face of your RPF1.

The Sprint kit doesn't have specific accommodations for ducts, but I can confirm that the APR kit fits with it.

If you're experiencing accelerated wear with the XP10, you most likely would benefit from a BBK.

It's not that I "need" ducts with the BBK, it's that they are already there and installed. If I can use them by just buying an optional adapter, I'll do that. If not...well then they'll be pulled.

Thanks for the template info, forgot about that! I'll make one soon and pull the wheels to see if it'll fit.
Most beginners I coach, when truly focusing on the fundamentals, will be reaching the limitations of their stock brake system, even with race pads, on their first or second day. I'm not surprised you've gotten there in just a few days, even without coaching.
