[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 16571281, member: 166576"] Factory intercooler on 07-12 is ok, the rest of the system is garbage. Larger heat exchanger and upgraded pump is necessary. The Pierberg pump from the 13-14 is VASTLY superior than the 07-12 factory Bosch and its not even close. A larger external pump mounted to a trunk ice tank would be better, but that seems to be a huge PITA. The 07-12 intercooler is a step behind the 13-14 factory intercooler, but I wouldnt call it inadequate, especially with the pump and HE upgraded. Bigger is better. The 2.3 TVS punched WELL above its weight class. Its biggest issue IMO was the need to spin the hell out of it to get higher boost pressure. That generated heat, but nothing like the factory 07-12 M122. We saw how dramatic of a performance increase the 2650 rotor pack was over the 2300, so much so that its hitting 1000rwhp in the 2020 GT500. That was only a 350cc increase. The 3100 is adding another 450cc. I also believe the 3100 rotor pack has the rotors more optimized as well. At that point, the only thing holding you back is the iron block. [/QUOTE]
