My little contribution to this thread, will be similar to a setup I'll be using pretty soon. Mine won't be quite as good, since I won't be able to fit the T2 repairers until I train Hull Upgrades 5 and Advanced Weapon Upgrades 4, but this is the absolutely ideal setup that one should die for if one is using a 'phoon:
-High Slots-
4x Dual 650mm Prototype I Repeating Seige Cannon
4x Arbalest Cruise Launcher I
-Mid Slots-
100MN Afterburner II (for those unconcerned with speed, substitute in a Target Painter II or a Cap Recharger II)
Cap Recharger II x2
Medium Capacitor Booster II (using CB800s) (but see note below)
-Low Slots-
Large Armour Repairer II x2
Damage Control II
Rat-Specific Tech II Armour Hardeners x3 (distributed 2/1 or 1/1/1, depending on rats)
Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II
-Rigs-
Capacitor Control Circuit I x2
Auxiliary Nano Pump I
With this setting, against a simulated Core deadspace damage distribution (taken from EVEgeek, using a 42% thermal/58% kinetic damage model) your effective DPS resistance is 1020/sec as long as you don't overuse the afterburner or run out of CB800s. For those who dislike using cap boosters (such as myself), use this variant:
-Mid Slots-
Cap Recharger II x4
-Low Slots-
Large Armour Repairer II x2
Rat-Specific Tech II Armour Hardeners x3 (distributed 2/1 or 1/1/1, depending on rats)
Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II
Capacitor Power Relay II
This variant drops DPS resistance vs. Core damage model to 867/sec and means you can't afterburn, which may cause difficulties taking into account the range of the autocannons, but substituting the 4x 650mm Large ACs for 4x Medium 720mm Howitzer Artillery (or named variant) fitted with Nuclear M provides more versitility vis-a-vis range with only a ~90 damage/sec drop in DPS (named variants present a lower DPS drop, due to their faster rate of fire).
This is all simulated using EFT and figures from Eve[geek], as due to my lack of in-game money and the fact that I don't have Mechanic V, Advanced Weapons Upgrades V or Hull Upgrades V yet, I haven't actually tried it, so your experience may vary. But the figures look promising and if I can somehow find the 40mil I need to actually make my Typhoon fully functional (ISKies plzplz?  ) with an only-slightly-less-kickass variant of this setup, some Level 4 baddie heads are going to roll.
Safe flight, everyone, and I hope you find this useful.
