Thanks for the info and it sounds like you have a lot of experience on the topic.

I was looking at the BlueStuff, and RedStuff pads, but I was worried that the YellowStuff pads would have been too noisy for the dual duty my car pulls.

I was also looking int the Akebono Ceramic pads, but haven't been sold that the brake power is hugely better than the stock pads. As I understand it though, they make no noise and almost no dust at all.

I have never considered the Ferodo pads and admittedly this is the first I've heard of them. It sounds like they may be the ticket for me as a cross section between performance/noise/ and dust (In order of importance).
