While a cooling system upgrade is in the works my car runs very consistently in its current form. We will see if the cooling system upgrade is worth the money. My current thought is that it will not be but we will find out. Before you ask yes I do track my car on occasion.

SI has been moved off my list of tuners. I have emails and PM's into the guys at SI and have received no response to my questions.
Well in that case, if you want to put 400hp to the ground I would look into building a twin turbo set-up. it more efficient than that power sucking S/C.
I wonder if the drive belt to the S/C can even handle spinning a 500 hp motor??
Build a turbo manifold for the car and rig up a larger IC system. I think it can be done, but I have my doubts about the S/C being able to tolerate the higher speeds, it will work but for how long?

Oh, did you try smoothing the Y-pipe from the S/C yet, I heard that trick makes a bit more power, I think its the SL55 y-pipe you need to order from MBZ.
