For the OP, I'm not sure if this is your problem but I thought I'd make a point of mentioning it. I had the RR Racing Sport Performance kit and had some funny problems in the early days of using it. In particular, the pads didn't quite fit into the caliper properly and I was just forcing the pads in with a mallet. Bad idea because that was causing me to drag brake pads as they wouldn't release from their position against the rotors properly.
The solution was to just sand the paint off the edges of the backing plate that contact the caliper, and then they would slide in easily and my problems went away.

Yeah I could be wrong there. I am not well versed in Wilwood even though I am a dealer for them.
