Which would you guys go with? Zimmerman X-drilled or ECS slotted & X-drilled? And what pads?

I have Zimmerman X-drilled rotors on the front with Mintex red box pads. No real improvement in braking compared to stock, but I get an almost constant squeal when stopping. This might be fixed with cleaning of the rotors. I've had them for about four thousand miles and it has been a constant squealing.

a few issues:
1. Took a looong time to get them, there were b/o for 2 weeks. (rotors)
2. Took it easy on them for a couple of weeks, the feel GREAT aroung town, and in "spirited" driving, outstanding in the wet. No squeal no dust. First time a took them to the track the outer inch of the rotor turned BLUE (wth?) and the pads turned to sponge after the second max stop from 80mph.
3. The cadium coating looked great for the first 200 or so miles, now you would be hard pressed to tell the coating was even there.
Next time I will go either ATE power slot (oe manufacture btw) and the RS4 pads or just drop the $$ on the brembo slotted rotors.
