I am using the OEM Porsche pads on my daily driver 2001 2.7 liter/base, and suggest you might want to also consider them. The brake performance is perfectly acceptable for street driving, pad life seems long (for street driving), and dusting is middle of the road (not non-existent/mild, but also nothing close to extreme, like what you're describing.)

Now I am getting some brake squeaking/squealing under mid/light pedal force and certain speeds/heat levels, which I'm struggling a bit to solve, but I figure it might be because of grooves worn into the discs, so plan to have the discs surfaced and I have a feeling that occasional squeaking noise will go away.

The OE pads also work fine year-round (if you drive in rain, or snow, they're all good!)

Best of luck to ya!
