Now I am willing to take the next steps to hopefully get the Z to cope much better this summer, but I would like to get feeback on my options:
- Larger (more rows) oil cooler
- CSF Triple Pass radiator
- Stillen G3 CAI OR Stillen Supercharger
Would anyone have a any other options that I haven't thought of, or of the options I have presented are there any pitfalls I should look out for (especially for the CAI or Supercharger)?

If you have not had a custom tune yet I would recommend getting one and have them lower the temp the electric fan kick sin. That will help make a pretty big difference, kept me at pretty consistent 180 temps unless I'm driving hard. not sure if a CAI or supercharger will help keep your car cool... I have a GTM supercharger and do not seem to run any cooler. If you are concerned about temps, a larger oil cooler, radiator or even a different front bumper would make the most difference. After my Stillen front bumper my car went from 180's to 150's-160's pretty consistently, 180's is i am driving hard. Hope that helps!
