in power this week it was cold and for sure the car is faster

Cold is awesome. Was 19F to 16F (at least in the early AM) during T-Giving week around Flagstaff and car ran real good and considering Flagstaff's altitude to boot. Also late at night driving I-40 east of Flagstaff in NM ran into some nearly 20F tempperatures and car was noticably more responsive.

Cold air and of course very dry air means a lot of air (oxygen) gets packed into the cylinders. And the real cold intake air means the heating from compression results in a lower rise in air temperature and then to put some icing on the cake the cold air passing through the intercoolers helps to remove more of whatever heat the tubos added to the intake are in compressing it.

Sincerely,

Macster.

-13.9ºF is pretty cold! Even the yellow gauge faces don't warm that car up much! (I had to convert--only remember that -40ºF = -40ºC from my flying days!)

i agree, i notice that my TT is far more responsive on the cold days

i was out at 6F, and the thing just sucks up the cold dense air

Sylv911, Just wait for the snow there to compact a bit and when you have about 4 inches of ice under it you could use it as an ultra-expensive snowboard...

Forced induction cars will always be more responsive in colder temps, heat is your enemy with these cars.
