That's the normal coolant circuit. I'm talking about the separate supercharger (intercooler) coolant loop that does not have a reservoir from the factory, so if it wasn't properly aired out when the car was assembled, air bubbles can stay in there practically forever.

Check out this thread and many others on this issue: https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=587347. Hope this helps and you gain those 7-9 mph back with a simple mod.

Some guys are using this device to help decrease air in the closed loop SC cooling system.
