Having a persistant brake vibration issue. Is it normal to hear a whirring sound when braking

from slotted rotors? I'm running Powerslot rotors front (slotted OEM rear), Hawk pads and SS brake lines, and the brakes have never felt right. It seems to be worse when its wet, but under harder braking I'll hear a deep whirring sound and feel a subtle vibration throughout the car as I initially stomp on the brakes. It will fade a little as it slows down. If its wet out and I've just started driving (after startup) the sound and vibration is worse and it feels like I have to push the pedal farther and harder to get the same amount of braking effect. Kinda scary. It also seems to want to pull to the right under harder braking in these situations, and the right rotors are definitely warmer to the touch than the left. What could be causing this? Sometimes when coming to a stop I'll hear for a few seconds a pump running and feel a very slight pulsation through the pedal. Also, if I'm driving slowly and hit a bump occasionally I'll hear this same sound. Could this be due to the ABS module?
I've looked under the car and everything looks fine and there is no unusual wear on the rotors that I can see.

Car has always sucked when braking in wet conditions regardless, but whirring and vibration are def. worse after slotted rotors and HPS pads.

vibration every time I hit the brakes the first 1 or 2 times when its very wet out.
