I tried Pagid Blue on a Boxster before & its a good pad for street/track use - didn't feel that I need more brakes even on the track.
Many trackie swears by Pagid Orange & it is a more track oriented pad. So, I suspect if you don't go to the track often, Blue might be sufficient

I like the Oranges on my 930 for street and track but they are noisy which may bother you. You might try Porterfield of Performance Friction who make several different compunds as well.

My buds & I use orange b/c r cars r mostly track junkies. The pads do make noise only if you treat them like stock pads. Instead try hard braking then a quick release this eliminates the noise but makes for a rougher ride.
