Default Wilwood pad compound differences

Question for those running wilwood brakes. I have a 70 Chevelle with wilwood discs front and rear with 4 piston callipers front and rear. Stock pads are the BP10 pads. Wanting to change up to either the polymatrix E or Q pads. Has anyone on here tried both? Car only sees road use but does get driven hard. I’ve looked at the pad comparison chart on wilwood a website.

From what I can understand the E pad is the better performing pad from cold and out performs the Q even when hot but creates more dust and is noisy when braking, but my car is my weekend toy not my daily driver so don’t think I would get much dust on the wheels, not sure how noisy they would be though.

Anyone tried both? From what I’ve read the E is the better pad but the Q is slightly more expensive.

Many thanks,
Chris.
