Yep, next year I am defintely getting an S/C. I want to maximize it N/A first, Do some supension work, gears ect. Then go with the S/C.
I was sitting on the fence about the S/C until G.T and his evil videos. Now it's decided!

Louie, any problems with overheating there in the desert? That is an awful lot of heat coming from that intercooler and a/c...all before it gets to the actual radiator to cool the engine.

Nice vids's Louie. What is that little beep in the beginning and the end? It makes me think of being on a plane and when seatbelt alert sounds and the captain says "You are free to move about the cabin". I know you are flying but sheeeesh :P

i enjoyed it for 2 days before the weather turned bad.
Now the outside temperatures reached 100F during day time with average humidity of 30-40%
i haven't noticed any increase in coolant temp.. it still does the same thing it did when the ambient temperature was 75F outside.

my coolant temp is around 180-190F.. goes up to 215 or so, then the fan kicks in and brings it back down.

i got 2 bottles of Redline water wetter on the way to go into the engine coolant, and i'm looking to reduce the high speed fan trigger temp from 220 or so, down to 200.

my IC has a full bottle of Purple Ice and distilled water.. seems quite happy so far (the compressor doesn't get boiling hot, and i could touch it for a second or so without losing my hand :P )
