EBC changed their compound and are no longer the ultra low brake dust pad they used to be. I swtiched to Porterfield R4-S and they are at least half the dust as the current EBC greens.

Is breaking dust like breaking wind?

Seriously, if you are not tracking your car and you do not mind the extra pedal pressure required, especially for cold braking, then EBC Greens are for you. I had not heard about the formula change though.

how is the stopping power compared to stock and EBC?

I just switched to greens about 150 miles ago and can't tell any difference in stopping compared to the stock pads.
ps. I only do city driving.(no track)
pss. ebc did change compounds on the greens and they do put off more dust than the old ones did

Your using the brakes too much thats all. Try not to touch the brake pedal at all it will cut down on the dust immensely.
