I have a friend who fabricated 3 inch ducts which apparently provided a lot more cooling (dropped the peak temp by 150F). The two piece rotor provides additional cooling.

Anyone have any experience with carbon ceramic rotors? I know they're expensive, but I'm not sure if that's a solution.
You also don't want to over cool as well as track pads do need some heat in them to work properly! You may need a more aggressive pad or a bbk as well as going to a 3" hose.
