Default Re: What a difference outside temps make~

I bump the car down a couple gears and see him take off. Within seconds and with tremendous wheel spin, I walk over him like he had hit the brakes. He catches me at the next light looking at me like I just raped his dog. He commented how “Sick” my car was and was on his merry way. Now to the point….Last night the inside temp gauge read 66 degrees, this is the coolest temps my car has seen with the Needswings, Code 3 Pulley and LET Tune. It is amazing the difference. In the normal 90 + degree Texas weather, I would see 16lbs of boost only in the top of third gear. Last night I was seeing 17lbs in the top of second! I have never felt the car this strong and can not wait to see this thing in 40-50 degree temps!! It is a shame the local ¼ track is done with amateur events for the season, I would really like to see what this car can do with my new mods and cooler temps~
know what you mean!!! it was 52degrees here a couple of nights ago, and it was like a whole new car!!!! i have the NW intake and ported y-distributor pipe. had so much fun running my errands!!!
