My car is slower when its hot outside
I forgot how much hot weather 85-90 degrees affect a fds performance.My car feels like 50 hp slower (butt dyno)then when its a 50-60 degree day.I still boost the same in the heat,but it just dosnt run like a scalded cat in it.

I have a greddy smic,downpipe,apexi intake, m2 stage 3 ecu, cb, running mobil1.This is my 2nd fd,sold my 98 c5 for my 93 base,bought with 8300 orig miles,now has 10,900 on it.I can feel the difference much more on the fd then the c5.No big deal ,i like to run it up to 7k rpm once in a while,since i baby it pretty much 95% of the time.
