Looking over your mod list, you probably want a bigger oil cooler than the Perrin if you're going to be supercharging it. I'm using the Perrin and even NA, I've seen oil temps as high as 244 F at the track (i.e., somewhat low oil pressure with 0w30/5w30). I've heard good things about Jackson Racing's oil cooler (and supercharger, for that matter), so might be worth a look. Also probably want to add some form of front camber adjustment (plates, bolts, etc.)
BTW does the series yellow come with Brembos? If so I'd be curious how they hold up at the track with a decent set of pads.

Thanks for the suggestions. I will follow your advice and go with a bigger oil cooler. I am happy you've had a reliable track in your FRS. The supercharger is a down the road mod I want to enjoy the car for awhile stock power and get a feel for it at the track. driver mod first lol
you have any suggestions for camber plates?
I am also to see how the performance pack Brembo's old up to track time. First session I am going to do just completely stock. If I have some issues Ill go pads and fluid. I will report back on their performance.
Another question. Do you use an oil catch can?
