It should only take in air if the system gets low or you're working on it. I would change it every 5 years (even though you didn't ask that) as the glycol is silicone based. A simple method of...

No bounce. You can stick your head under the rear end and make a simple visual check to ascertain there is no fluid on the suspension. Should be dry as a bone.

Hah. IAT's in OH winters. Just Wed am funnies. I know LW used past tense, but I only consider IAT's in these parts in July and August.

Pics of collapsed bricks are ugly. Good prevention.

It is difficult to answer your question without seeing the test results. My guess is it's running too rich. Are you certain the system is flashed back to all oem parameters? Only in Cali...

Just out of curiosity, how long (miles and years) have you been running it like this? I ask because with that combo, you're spinning at 26K. My tuner wouldn't do that.

Yeah...I'd like that dyno read as well. I'm heavily cammed, headers, corn, ported, etc. and still don't make 825rwhp in cold weather. I'm close, and probably need 15's instead of 17's.

Dexcool ought to be changed and flushed every 5 years. Period. The silicone in Dexcool will eventually coagulate and plug the system.

I would not recommend lowering tire pressures on low profile rims. Tires and much cheaper than forged rims.

Absolutely. You will have more shoulder height on the tire, and can get more patch on the pavement depending on which wheels you purchase.

One last place to check: with the above being done (good fuse, relay clicking), check to see if you have power at the pump. If so, the pump is fried.

5 year warranty on a 10 year old Z?

Insofar as voiding your warranty, you'll have to read it to know. Simple bolt ons is an obtuse phrase, as it could include pulleys, cat delete, etc.
