are all these miles with SC or just the mileage? I have driven already 35k miles since i got it in 14 months

. Coming to normal rpm range 5 psi will be the boost level most of my drive time which seems encouraging.

I'm also going to make some custom ducting into the engine bay I've came up with. I also don't run a cowl so that another big thing.

Also with a FI the Uprev can be used to turn on the fans sooner.

Bigger oil cooler already there with the kit and CSF/PRC radiator already on the list along with Spal fans and shroud. Methanol maybe for occasional use I can think off but dont want to depend on it that why asking here. Cooling in bumper and hood is not an issue.
