Options for high-temperature plastics?

I'd like to be able to try PPS and Ultem. What's required to run up to a higher extruder temperature?

Offhand, I would expect to change the firmware to increase the hotend temperature limit and possibly a different thermistor. It might be necessary to get a more-powerful heater cartridge and power supply.

Has anyone done this who might be able to tell the tale?

Thanks!

Stephen Armstrong, on the Facebook prusa community and custom mods page is playing with it.
