I'm not sure you'll see any "improvement" per se but I see no reason to add the weight to the car if it's not needed. The heatsink design is very effective at dissipating heat on it's own. If there's even the smallest amount of airflow across those fins it's pretty amazing how cool the unit can run.

147 on the outside of the esc still isn't a temperature I'd worry about in the slightest to be honest.
