Lovin the cold/cool nights
For those who live up north, Dont you love these fall nights!! The nights are getting cooler and colder so the Cl-S is sucking that cold air in!! You can just feel and hear the car move more, I am just lovin it!! I got on the car tonight on the NY Thruway, and love the sound of that Comptech exhaust also!! Sorry for all you southern people :P

classy, imagine havin headers and intake, my car feelslike it got another 20hp from the weather alone. I wonder of german cars get the same feeling in the cold, cuz I feel like I can take out an s4 or somethin, lol. The only downside to the cold weather is the rattles, but it's an even tradeoff...
bigman, we should def hook up another meet, mmm burgerking... gettin hungry.

YUP…
I’ve been leaving the house at 5:45AM for work these last few weeks and the temps have been in the mid 30’s at times.
I know it’s hard to prove within the confines of a dyno room, but this engine DEFINITELY comes alive when the weather gets colder.
Headers & CAI seem to be more effective as well.
I’m sure the Supercharger guys are probably REALLY noticing the difference now.

We're in the 30's and 40's in Chi-town ... and trust me . i NOW feel my icebox and headers come to life... now I see what the midrange power the icebox develops is all about. However, today it was 70 degrees (some weather fluke) and i felt the sluggishness return briefly.
I wish engines were so damn dependent on temperature, air density, humidity .. i love my TL-S 50 degrees and below ... i'm not so fond of it 80 degrees +

But I did find it interesting that DC did this to keep power levels somewhat consistant.
