i know this has been brought up and discussed several times but i just had to say...my car sounds and feels like a beast when the temp drops to 65 and below..i love this weather!!!

 

So just imagine having an FI with an intercooler.

 

oh yeah..

 

cold air...... not sure if I notice it in the car but when I'm in cold temps on the bike you can definitely feel the HP increase

 

yep. running a turbo'd integra. my butt dyno tells me that my car is more responsive when i drive at night.

 

love driving in the cold, too bad the tires are hard as rocks

 

Second this. I can def feel a HP diff in the cold.

However, I also notice the firmer(due to cold) dash pieces vibrate/rattle more in the winter...

No rattles in the summer, plenty in the winter....

 

your car gains hp in the cold?

 

^^ yeah gives you extra 50 hp. You didnt know ?

 

^^^ You didn't get the memo?

 

^^

 

haha that is funny.

 

In case you'd really like info....

Its the same idea of a "cold air intake"...but no special intake is needed....

I think its that colder air allows more air/fuel to fit in the cylinder, producing more power....(others can correct me if I'm not spot on...)

 

LOL,,, I can vouch for that. I didn't know what was going on when I moved from San Diego to CT. Time for the snows to go on.

 

I don't notice the difference. Maybe that's because I don't drive past 3500 RPMs yet :]
