There are several 'high performance' brake pads that you can buy, many of which you can find by searching DSMtuners. Axxis, metal masters, greens, etc... You can also go with OEM pads just like you had before.

How much better are the aftermarket brake pads versus OEM?

A lot better, but you have to be careful because some wear rotors faster, and feel different (better or worse). Like I said, DSMtuners is a great place to get opinions, just search brake pads
