ZED...

For you guys with SC's, is an oil cooler required if you're running FI in a daily driven Z? No track time, just DD with the occasional joy ride. Just wondering if an aftermarket oil cooler is necessary. Also what typw would be sufficient if any?

Oil cooler is a YES, they don't cost that much. If your going FI'ed and not ready to spend 10K+ your setting yourself up for trouble.

a few pages back there was talk of raising the limiter...as a newb, would you be looking at upgrading the valvetrain? are 370s getting into aftermarket cams? most of these F/I setups seem to be unbroken/sealed motors. what's a safe bottom end whp #?

have you guys seen a supercharged e92 m3? those things are ******* beasts.

sorry for bringing the e92 comparison back up, just thought i'd mention it cause i've always thought highly of the m3 motors.
