I had OEM, changed to Yellow Stuff by EBC, then changed to Mintex OEM equivalents. By far, the best ones Yellow Stuff. Obvious difference, especially at high speed braking. I'm really not liking the Mintex at the moment after having the Yellow Stuff. Also, one thing to note is that Mintex, Textar and Pagid are one company so it is very likely the performance of their OEM equivalent pads will all be the same. Cannot comment on the others you have listed.
You mention good performance which means you want a fast road/track pad and all the ones you have listed are OEM equivalents as far as I am aware. So you will not get any better performance from OEM.

Therefore, my recommendation would be to go for Yellow Stuff by EBC or if you can spend a little extra, go for Ferodo DS2500 which are supposed to be VERY good. However, like I say, they are not cheap.
