cm^2 are you japanese? those are some odd units :P

Most of the stuff i said in this thread should be ignored, as i have made some bad assumptions (base thickness etc). I still dont believe the apogee can beat the storm style but we will see.

The stuff on CFD is wrong as i thought that the block used jet impingement. Probably they got COSMOS out and parameterised the design to optimise it, im not sure how accurate its going to be on such small scales as you need alot of elements to get things right. Based on the design of it this could well be as good as your going to get with pins. They've clearly thought abit about it, as a DFMA (design for manufacture and assembly) piece it looks really good and cheap.

I always wondered why stew didnt injection mould his top pieces there might be issues with accuracy but could quite easily lower prices.
