ttb,
yep, I was asking you...
From what I've read thus far...it seems we road racers are stuck with SMIC, HMIC, or V-mount.
SMIC seems to be a good solution, and has worked for many FD road racers.
Chuck Huang's HMIC and V-mount concepts are fairly new to the FD scene, at least here in the USA... Sadly I NEED my A/C, so V-mount is out.
The choices left for road racers are either SMIC or HMIC.
Apparently Chuck's HMIC Spearco core flows MUCH more air volume than Kevin's ASP large IC core--935 cubic feet per minute with Chuck's core, and 750 cfm for Kevin's...
There's a thorough discussion of whether the HMIC actually works like an SMIC, or works BETTER than an SMIC when the HMIC is used with a vented hood and HMIC outlet duct...
