Ferodo DS2500. Pricey but worth it. Fantastic street/autocross/HPDE pad. Low initial bite and incredibly easy to modulate. Does not stick on release like the HP+ is known to.
I eventually made it out the track and was surprised how well the car performed despite worn, stock brakes and tyres. Each lap brought more and more confidence although the long straight did bring some serious speed. I saw 110mph pretty much each lap and on lap 6 or 7 on the first run the brake pedal became a bit too soft for my liking followed by a bit of smoke in the rear view mirror.
I would like them from Ferodo as well. I have them on my BRZ and they are great.
Brake job coming up this weekend. New rotors (Centric blanks, OEM size) are still in transit to my door... but here's the good stuff. Ferodo DS2500 brake pads and RBS600.
I ran with Ferodo DS2500s. They work incredibly well for light track use (my street tires overheat before the brakes ever fade), they are dead silent, and, somehow, very low dust. They are more expensive than most other pads though and probably excessive for most people in their capabilities.

The rear brake pads I use all the time are ferodo 2500, they are great for the track and don't make noise on the street.
I used Ferodo DS-2500 and Mintex Redbox on my 337, and that was my favorite brake setup of three VWs to date. Then there is my brother-in-law's 335i Sport My goal with the 337 was to delay ABS activation, as I thought that the rear was overbraked. I don't recall whether the new pad setup helped in that regard, but the DS-2500 improved the initial bite a lot.
I did install Ferodo pads as well as the brake fluid flush at local Audi Dealership, however I do have some pulsation when I brake from higher speed. It is non existent in the city driving but on the highway my brake pedal pulsates a bit and I don't like this.
