We all know the fastest mech possible is the one that has its jump deacceleration fail on atmospheric entry

Supercharger: 10% of engine weight, +1 crit per location with an engine crit. Rules are the same as MASC, but, instead of freezing the legs, you roll once on Determining Critical Hits and apply any and all crits to the engine. Start at the top of the CT engine crits and move down. Whether or not you get any crits, the Supercharger fails and is considered destroyed.
To combine with MASC, just put them both on. If both are activated in the same turn, roll for each, with a -1 penalty to each roll. Running MP = 2.5x Walking, and Sprinting = 3x Walking.

Don't forget about the ones that make reentry by being slingshot off of a warship at a full 2-g burn.

Oops, forgot you wanted MASC too:
From BMR:
It's TSM with which MASC is incompatible.
MASC takes up mech tonnage/20 (round .5 up) tons and crits. (/25 for clans).
If you use it in a turn, roll 2d6. On 2, the leg actuators freeze. For the second consecutive turn, it's 4 or less, then 6, then 10, and the legs automatically freeze on the 5th consecutive turn. For each turn during which the MASC is inactive reduce the target by one block. It may never go below 3, though (i.e. 10, 6, 4, 3).
