Question Any track junkie here with supercharger?

If any of track junkie with supercharger set up, I got a few questions. I'm seriously thinking of F/I right now.

1 How usable is the power? Long straight away? High speed cornering? Overall accelerating?
2 What kind of fuel do you use? 91 or 100?
3 Any overheat issue?
4 What do you do better than bolt on NA at the track?
5 What's the maximum boost you can run on 100 octane without knocking?
6 Do you recommend running S/C at the track?

Thank you very much.

I would watch Travis's build if I were you. He is adding a supercharger to a track only car.

Cooling is going to be the biggest issue given how difficult it is to keep even the NA motor cool on track.
