I agree that heat is the major drawback of any roots style blower. The great part is the LSJ intake manifold has a built in intercooler. There is a dual pass end plate offered for the manifold which should aid with cooling the intake charge. However I have not seen or heard how well it works. What I do know is its standard equipment on the race Cobalts so it’s got to do something. I also agree that initial cash should be spent on traction modifications simply because if you can’t put it to the ground, what good is it to you. Here’s where I'm going to disagree ever so slightly. People have ported and polished there blowers and do see increases. A larger TB would not be a bad idea if you’re going for big numbers.
