I can't imagine the FMIC for the supercharger kit or the supercharger kit itself will make it any better. Not to mention the oil/water heat exchanger heating/cooling both the oil and water at the same time. On the street, not a problem, but Travis' car does not see the street. Now I could very well be wrong, and it would be nice if I am but if he wants to be running 20-30 minutes at a time without issues, I see a big radiator in his near future. The good news is that no matter what, there's going to be a fix and the fact that Travis' car is a track only machine opens up a world of fun possibilities for that fix.
Travis's car has a very large aftermarket radiator and no condensor in it to obstruct the air flow, temps won't be an issue. Without this, Bonnani your are correct he would need upgrading.
