Good stopping power is related to the dust.... typically the more dust, the higher stopping power...

it's a trade off...

I definitely know some pads that are awesome, but they also leave lots of dust www.racebrakes.com

Sorry I have no low dust options - I've always preferred stopping power over clean wheels
