I've been running the TF Brake Cooling kit and ti-shims since I started tracking, and I think they help contribute to extending the pad and rotor life. I know two guys whos OEM rotors were trashed after a day or two at Sebring.

Sounds like you found the best setup for OEM brakes without costing an arm and leg.

I personally don't like the idea of the ducts it's harder to control the cooling. It's either full open or blocked off. In your case if you are always on a heavy braking track it becomes the magic bullet.
