Search showed nothing too useful.

Any thoughts on the Mintex brake pads? It showed up on the shopping list and I'm curious how the quality is. Are they any better than the stock Brembos?

"Got the new Issue of The Golf magazine. They did a test of a bunch of
HP brake pads. Here are the results. This was a independent testing
and they did 15 test on each pad. They did not test for dust or other
factors.

Pad: Average Stopping Distance:

Standard OE VW Pads 34.4m
Frenzi Italia 32.3m
Pagid T4151 31.6m
Pagid FR4151 30.7m
Ferodo DS2000 32.7m
Brembo 31.8m
G-Force Sport 30.5m
Formula Pads 32.7m
OMP 961k 30.7m
Mintex 1144 26.9m

This is an extremely dusty racing pad!
