Default Supercharger For Track Day Car?

Good Dy Folks
I've been running a track day car for almost a full 2 years now and am thinking of supercharging my ride. The car is an '89 CRX with a totally stock JDM GSR. I enjoy the reliability and the power is pretty good but as usual, now i want more. I know this question has probably been asked many times before but I just cant seem to find a decent answer.
So, is there anyone out there who uses a supercharger set up for track days? Usually we get FOUR 30 minute sessions. Is cooling an issue? Is the JRSC set up a good start?
Any and all help from experienced users welcome.

Thanks!!

haven't came across a supercharged car doing 30 minute heats. intake temps would be the biggest problem. there are threads on turbo cars doing so though. big oil cooler, big radiator and a good bottom end.

Are you kidding? Hell yes... as long as you have a good way of cooling the charge air down (water after cooler or some intercooler) you're fine. That would be a fun fun FUN thing to have on a circuit course.

Keep the forum updated.. YEAH!! ;-)
