Default EBC Brake Pads

Been looking at ceramic brake pads for my Grand Sport. Has anyone had any experience with EBC Redstuff 3000 pads? They are a bit more pricey than the Power Stop pads but not much.

The link doesn't give any description about the pads, and my first concern is not only performance, but how much brake-dust do they generate? I plan on changing out my pads at the 500 mile oil change, once I pick up my GS.

I am running the EBC Yellow Stuff on my 2014 C7 Base. I autocross about twice a month and these have really pleased me. They stop very well cold and just get better as they warm. Running a road course this past weekend and braking on the front straightaway from 125-130 mph between the 300 and 200 foot mark, easy peddle, no ABS just slowed the car nice to get into a 90 degree right. Have run them all season now, eight 2 day events, still over 50% pad left. Only bad point is the break-in noise for the first 500 miles or so, they are loud, like school bus loud, but settle down and get quiet after break-in. Follow their instructions for break-in and you'll be happy.
