I've had great results from Raybestos ST43s and Ferodo DS2500s for dual duty.
I use the HD Powerstop with vented rotors, front and rear. I tow a trailer. They exceed the life of OEM pads. And stop well.
I'm using raybestos SP436ATRH for the pads and raybestos 96632FZN for the rotors. Been using them since January and have put about 6k on them, living in a really hilly area with my drums being basically useless because the shoes have been coated in gear oil due to an axle leak. I javent had any issues with brake fade or warping and I took them on a 2hr trip to west virginia from central ohio in March.
I took it out on a twisty road for about 40 miles, and did some hard stops. Seems to have resolved the issue. I read somewhere that these brakes need time for bed settling. I will say, they do stop impressively well. The factory stuff was underwhelming.
I did Power Stops because when I got them we're slightly cheaper with a rebate. Haven't had any problems with them.
I replaced my rear pads with Raybestos EHT1761 at 23,000 miles. I did not replace the rotors as they were undamaged. I did buy rear rotors, Powerstop EBR1697EVC. I am at 37,000 now with no dust, no noise, and minimal pad wear.
'22 3.3t SP, with the brembos, bought the F&R Kit, been loving the brakes now. Definitely better than stock after the pads have warmed up.
At 34k miles I have replaced my front brake pads with “Power Stop Z23-2275 Evolution Sport” and it is ten times better than the factory original brakes. If you own a Turbo engine, do yourself a good and replace front pads (at least) asap.

I just replaced my rear pads (Powerstop) 3 weeks ago and they already have excessive rust. I know that rust is normal on all brake drums, but my front ones which are still original, don't show a tremendous amount of rust.
