Unless you think you're going to be pushing that kind of specific output and/or boost, then it's probably not worth it. The 370Z really doesn't need a lot of boost (and in turn extra heat) to reach insane power levels.

Hehe, I ran 25psi on my 35R on my STI...not really surprised when it blew up

I've thought about meth injection to keep myself a little bit more on the safe side in florida heat. I think though that for normal everyday driving its fine without meth, then if you take it to the track, run the highest possible octane you can find.

LaterlaG's: check out my journal sometime, I'm doing what you're asking about. I'm trying to lower my engine bay / engine temps across the board too. I'm going to start working on my cooling after this week...

FYI, I did some on-dyno testing. A cooler intercooler on the Stillen kit yielded 12whp. Check out the cryO2 system from DEI. Its definitely making its way to my car in a few months...
