I'm using Hawk brake pads. It was a step above the stock pads.

To me, I felt a difference in stopping power. I got mine's fro Jegs. P/N in the link.

I just got some Hawk HP+ pads just for the fronts....and ohhh baby once they get warmed up they are incredible. I took them to a two day track event at Mid-ohio and they took everything I could throw at them and never faded once.

However, they squeak and dust so bad that I took them off and put my Bosch pads back on. I will continue to use the HP+ for track events, but in the meantime...the Bosch pads are just fine.

Hawk makes another pad that is know as the HPS that is not as agressive as the HP+ and is suppose to offer better performance than stock, but less dusting.
