Turbo Weather?
I just ran out to get some taco hell.
Anyway, it is cold as fuck outside. I most definately noticed a difference in building boost. (I keep an eye on the AVC-R display.) I don't usually hit full boost, (15psi) until 3rd gear. Tonight full boost was there in all 6 gears.
Fun.... Cold as hell outside, but fun.
Anyone else seeing a difference out there?

i know this isnt turbo, but this is the closest thing i have to it on my car.. i can tell a big difference with how much my CAI is helping ever since the temp. started to go down compared to how it was during the summer.

though i like the extra OOMPFFF...i had to cut my boost back a tad on my utec.
the weather changed from a steady 70~ degress to 35~degress here in blacksburg overnight. i spiked about a half psi over my target....so now i have to compensate a little. thank goodness all my maps a decent buffer zone to compansate for the altitude and weather.

you n/a guys will see a more noticeable effect from colder temps than the turbo guys. the turbo aka the great intake charge heater does a decent job at evening things out.
but as the temp drops, air is more dense... anyone have any clue on wether or not this would affect atmospheric pressure? i know barometric press. changes will yield power gains, but is baro the same thing as atmospheric?? hmm???
