If you're used to driving properly bedded race pads on the street, the included pads with the CSG Brembo GT kit will be no problem for you. You'll get minor squeaks here and there at very low speeds, but no banshee howl. If you'd prefer, you can exchange those pads for pure street pads at no cost, to reduce noise and dust further.
Pads for the CSG Brembo GT are shared with every major 4 piston Brembo caliper on the market, including OEM.
I would expect to see a substantial pad use drop with this kit compared to Wilwoods, as well as superior braking feel, modulation, and consistency, as well as much lower temperatures for the same amount of braking stress.
Any OE replacement rotor can be used, as well as OEM, but due to the sheer capacity of this kit, you will not be needing rotors very quickly. Brembo replacement rotors are $330 each, but I've never seen them needing replacement with less than 30+ days at this time, and pretty much everyone with a CSG Brembo GT kit is tracking their cars seriously with nice race pads.

Thanks for the detailed response. Ill be pulling my wilwoods before too long and will be replacing them before next season. I had planned to run AP as that seemed to be the recommended setup but now I see your brembo setup that comes in a little cheaper with hopefully similar performance aside from weight.
