I can't comment on the stock intercooler because for safety reasons, I haven't pushed the car hard or even past 6k RPM after the new pulley. Don't want to run into fuel issues, so this is why the fuel pump is going in. I think the stock 500 intercooler should be fine for the job honestly.

I'm going to get my meth injection working soon anyway, plan to run winter blend windshield washer fluid for cost reasons. This way I can always have it filled, and be around 35% meth to 65% water mixture which will have no problems evaporating in the Florida heat year round.

The supercharger is noticeably louder at idle and low RPM, that high pitched whistle sound is heard up to 20mph. Its a nice upgrade. Can't comment on the effectiveness of my supercharger pulley coating yet, as I haven't pushed it. I might upgrade to a mechanical hydraulic tensioner for more...tension, if I see slip.
look past the grime to the circular section thats actually flush with the diff case, you can see the oil weeping down the bottom of the differential case. this is a common leak point on the z4m Diff....
