I had a standard RF on the car for several hundred miles at first and never had a MIL come up. I took it off, but if you're interested, let me know. It was good for a little more whine (in conjunction with removing the lid dampener). I'm not sure about more power without a tune, but it was nice (at the time) to not worry about warranty issues.

So looks like there isn't many suggestions for me in here, would a lower pulley/e85/tune be a good starting point. They don't use the sniffer in cali on these new cars and it's straight OBDII readers so I think I could get away with those modifications for now....maybe even port and polish the supercharger? Thoughts?

I would definitely do flex fuel and tune. I’m not a fan of pulleying down without doing cooling mods first.

Upgraded main heat exchanger, aftermarket oil cooler, upgraded supercharger bricks, and/or upgraded coolant reservoir (under hood or trunk tank).
