Which type of brake pads do you recommend me, for my 996 that will be good in performance for DE, but will not be very noisy for driving on the street?.

Pagid has a sport pad that is not quite a track pad, but can take more heat than the stock pads. Think they are called Pagid sport blue. That might be worth a try. And, as the other poster suggests, the OEM pads might be good for you. But it is a hard question to answer. If you have or get some experience on the track, you might find the OEM pads cannot handle the heat, and you might have to move to track pads, like Pagid Orange. But the track pads make more dust, don't work as well when cold as do the street pads, and can make noise.

When I first got started doing DEs, I started with stock pads, and after a few weekends, got good enough that I was cooking them. I was still driving my car to the track in those days, so I changed to track pads before leaving home if the track was reasonably close, and then change back at the end of the weekend. I see a lot of guys change them at the track.
