55 degrees + Supercharged =



I can't believe how the cool weather makes such a big difference in power. I knew cold air will always make more power but with the supercharger it's just incredible.

That's funny you mentioned this... I was thinking the same thing last night on my drive home around midnight. It was a brisk 53 degrees and noticed a better response on the highway and how the oil temp runs cooler too. The only problem for me is I can't run with my windows fully down anymore to listen to the exhaust note and HFC xpipe since it's freezing at high speeds, haha.

Now if only the weather can stay like this without snow, that would be amazing!

No doubt, this is the best time of the rear to drive.

Yep... it will definately feel like that. This is why you see alot of guys with the hood open before they run at the quarter mile tracks.

Makes me think I should have gotten the inter cooled setup.
