One of the most challenging speed density setups I've worked with was an MP112 CTSV with a wild IAT sensor location and a ridiculous amount of hot metal in the intake airflow path due to the blower. It was definitely beyond the capability of the OEM software to manage.
On paper, the SD fueling drift is manageable with the complex air temp model, given a reasonably tame combination. Start getting wild with the cam on a gen3 though and the model becomes less capable due to the internal EGR. It wasn't until gen4 that GM incorporated EGR compensation in the charge temp model.
