If it's at 60Hz (most likely is since you're in Michigan) with the MD-20RZ I would be expecting around bang on 2gpm with a Storm/G4 with an otherwise 1/2" tubed system + heater-core(s).

No. The Cascade SS was an optimised Cascade. The lessons learned with the SS vs Cascade were taken to the Storm design. The G5 also has a greatly more dense internal structure over the G4. You can tell which level the design is by counting the number of cups along the top row.
