Brake pads!

You need to try new pads if you think HPS is good.

I am sure it beats the HPS. They were downright scary

I think I'm running B-force up front and NS400 in the rear, might be reversed though; I went for the most braking power with no noise and ended up with those. I honestly don't remember how much more or less brake dust I had

Raysbestos pads are pretty awesome performance wise and I mean almost no dust at all.

Has anyone compared the Carbotech Ceramics to stock in terms of dusting?

No offense, but I've obviously got stricter dust standards than most. I just don't trust someone saying "low dust" or "no dust". I'm using a ceramic right now that dusts around 50% more than the OEM pads. It took the OEM pads a little over a week to put a noticeable layer of dust on my front wheels - these Hawk PC are that bad or worse in about 5 days typically.

Yup these are next on my list. I just recently got to drive Ms. Pint's base model Z with these and felt like it braked better than my sports brakes with slotted rotors and Hawk PC pads. I don't think I'm going to be happy with the dust on any real performance pads, even if they are ceramic.
