I put Stoptech street pads in because they're super cheap and actually have a really high temp rating. I emailed Stoptech a few years ago when I was getting a BBK for my WRX and they told me they're rated at 1300F or 1350F (I can't remember which). They're bite isn't real strong but modulation is good and they seem to do the job without any major fading or wear. Granted I didn't push them to their limits at all, because I'm sure the limits aren't real high as they're a compromise pad.
On the street they feel OEM except not as firm or grabby as stock. The stock brakes feel great on the street IMO but I didn't want to try them on the track. I don't know how they compare with dust yet. Ultimately if I'm going to do 3-5 days a year I really need to get a front BBK for better heat and wear management. Then I would feel comfortable hammering the brakes a little more. I found Stoptech ST60 380mm front BBK for $2500 and might go for that sometime this season.
