Tradeoff between squealing brakes and dusty pads.. Anti-squeal spray is recommended
Regardless of what kind of pads you use, if you install new brake pads on worn rotors it will have a tendency to squeal.. Softer compounds tend to squeal less but dust more, vice versa for a harder compound..
I have had good experience with REPCO Metal master pads, they dont dust very much, constructed of high quality and can be used on the track, but are harder on rotors, my recommendation is to spray anti squeal spray on the rotors before you install new brakes, it keeps the squeal away for a year or so but has to be reapplied every so often..
