Stock brakes Cold stopping power increase with pads?

Are there any pads on the market that will improve the cold braking power of the stock brakes? (preferably without squeel)

If you are looking for stock. . .

Check out ceramic pads from any manufacturer, I use them on any brake job that I can. Mostly for these reasons. . .

1. Less brake dust
2. longer lasting
3. little to no squealing from brakes (haven't had one customer complain about them yet)
4. They are usually only about 20-50 dollars more then most OEM brake pads.

The company I use is called Bendix, the number you can look them under is D822CT if I remember correctly. ceramics are abour the only thing I can think of that might help you out. I know when it's time for my brake job I am going to get Ceramics.
