Default Supercooler Questions

Hi everyone I have recently joined the forum but have been reading for quite some time..
My question is in regards to the NeedsWings supercooler.

I have added the following mods:
178, CAI, Ford lightning I/C pump, and pulley saver kit.

I don't race my car but would like to take it to the track and run a few 1/4 miles this spring/summer..

Do the mods I have necessitate a supercooler? or coolant isolation kit??
I don't know if I have or will ever have the heat soak issue where the supercharger shuts off. I do not have an IAT guage so I don't know those temps nor have i had the car long.

The price for the supercooler pretty steep righ now and i am determining how helpful it would be for me as not being a race person. On the flip side I don't want to have the supercharger shut down while running a few 1/4 miles or long cruise.

I also understand the engine fan will run more due to the supercooler blocking radiator, is this factual??
Will the supercooler be of value if the thermostat is not also changed?

I searched the forum and did not find my answer most seem to relate to racing..

I would like to thank everyone for all the information in advance.
