goals...most important..i hate squeal. second is cost. third is longevity.

thanks.

in my previous experiences, after market...always squeal. original parts are best. so where can i get geniune parts for low cost?

When I was running street pads I had good experiences with both OEM from Sunset Porsche and Mintex pads. Others are running these pads to good effect with low noise, low dust:

I have since moved on to a dedicated track pad that is expensive, never overheats, throws dust like crazy and squeals like a school bus when cold. We all have our priorities.
