I run the Ferodo DS2500 which would probably meet your criteria. Fair warning though - they make noise, especially in the fixed Brembo calipers. You have to regrease them every few months.
Buy Ferodo DS2500 brake pads then buy rotors according to your budget, forget about drilled rotors if anything go with slotted and if within your budget get two piece rotors in order to save unsprung weight.
Ferodo ds2500 is a great option. I’ve heard yellows are noisy/dusty. I’ve inhaled plumes of it first hand on the track.
Stock PP1 pads are Ferodo DS2500. Actually pretty good.
Ferodo 3.12 pads ( 6 track days+? we will see)
Now I have a 19 R DSG, and I've tracked it twice (Summit Point and VIR) with nothing more than new rotors, Ferodo brake pads and Motul 500 fluid. I never had any overheating issues with either the brakes or the oil, but both weekends were cooler weather.
I track the car and use the DS2500 pads with DOT 4 brake guild. Let me tell you this from personal experience, the stock pads fade real quick. After 2 sessions or so (15mins sessions), the brakes get real spongy.
Many people don't like ferodo pads, but I use ds2500 for dual duty, but they can be hard to find. Just got to be careful getting off the highway with them when they are cold.
I put some Ferodo DS2500s for a HPDE event at the end of July and noticed discoloration and crumbling on the edges. Swapped them out with PFC08s for this weekend’s HPDE and noticed chunks of material missing from the inner of the pad.
