Front Brake options

Time to do a brake job up front, and am looking for input from yall.
I know Clay sells the powerslots and hawks, is this the best option?
Is the EBC thing all hype, or do they really provide that much better braking?
Looking for something that stops better than OEM, but hoping not to break the bank.
However, if it costs more to get quality equipment, then im not opposed to doing so either.

i did not price out the ebc parts but have read good feedback on them. the best prices i could find had the powerslot rotors cheaper than oem. hawk pads were just a little higher than oem. i just installed the rears last night and will be doing the fronts this weekend so i have not been able to drive it much to give any feedback on performance.
