cool charge
Is it just me or does a supercharged car run like it has a extra 100hp this time a year.I had a novi installed along with a number of mods and picked it up in july and the car is crazy fast 581rwhp,but with this no humid coolweather it feels animal fast.

Unfortunately, we don't get all that much cold weather down here in South Florida...but even 70's make a difference...

Yep, the cooler the outside air is the cooler the intake charge. This is because of two factors:
1) The air coming into the head unit is cooler.
2) The cooler air across the intercooler will draw out more heat from the intake charge.
Kind of like a win win
