My brake cooling duct comes into the front of the caliper. Coming in from the back the "wind" is being forced toward the rear of the car, away from the rotors.

I'm changing pads to a higher temp! As DV suggested, if your pedal is still hard, it's the pads! I'm running Yokohama auto x tires, there pretty sticky compared to any street tire I've run!

Next step if that doesn't do it:
Vented rotors (sure hope I can still use the high dollar four pot Wilwood calipers with those)!

EDIT:
Tapered pads. You won't be able to tell until they get some decent "wear" on them. One end will be thinner than the other end. This is most often a problem associated with single pot calipers. With a four pot Wilwood I think you will be fine.

Brake hose: Yeah, it's EASY to say it has to be really close to the rotor, and it's DARN hard to get it there without it being all pinched up on the end! Do the best you can. I don't count heavily on ducting to help "that much", but I'll take all I can get! As the rotor temps increase so the cooling duct efficiency also increases. With high temp pads, expect much greater rotor temps, so ANY cooling duct action will be beneficial. Keep those front wheel bearings packed with quality grease!
