I had the car out last weekend and what a difference the cold air makes over time with the stock set up.


Would upgraded intercoolers mimic this performance even in the brutal heat of the summer?

Nope, but methanol injection goes a long way to help it

I've always wondered this too because the car is a totally different animal summer to fall/winter...and that's in SoCal! I can't imagine what it's like on the eastcoast.

I'm running meth here in New York

The last few mornings where temp is 56F and humidity is low have been like driving a different car.

It's just always in beast mode.

Docs_ is infamous around these parts
Intercoolers never a bad idea to upgrade to on any turbos cars though.
