Never dived the Frog stuff but I have 40lbs wing for 12's and use a 60lbs for 104's,18's,RB80. The 40 is certainly fine for 12's and a load of stages.

The comment made about a donut shaped wing being a bit too long on faber 12's is actually very relevant. You can end up damaging the wing as its longer than the cylinders. Might be worth you borrowing the gear off someone to test it. Not sure when and where you are next diving but if you can meet up with someone it might be a good move.

Cheers

Al I used my F wing with fabers without any issues
