For the left side, you don't need an upgraded mat because the pickup is already submerged. On the right side, there's effectively no fuel available. I wouldn't think a mat would help much other than whatever fuel is held within the mat might give a touch more buffer. At the rate these cars drink fuel at WOT, my gut feeling is that would almost be negligible benefit. I could be wrong though.
The JMS voltage booster seems to solve the problem at the 700 RWHP mark (93 octane), although I'm not of fan of its somewhat significant 24x7 power consumption. I had planned to hookup a relay with heavy duty diodes to cut power from the JMS booster while maintaining power to the FPCM (to keep the computers happy). I bought all of the stuff to do it, but haven't found the time yet.

24/7 power consumption? Mine shuts off just like the rest of the controllers a couple minutes after the vehicle is turned off. Or at least I think it does...the green LED turns off on the unit.
