marcus 0 Posted December 1, 2004 Ive just been out driving, its the coldest conditions ive driven the car in and the car seemed totally different...it was going mad :shock: through the rev range and spinning everywhere, it loved it. the accelleration has never been so beastly. :twisted: i was on the phne to G-werks earlier too whinging about its performance. Damn that that drive was good, glad i survived to post in about it. hehe. :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coolrado 0 Posted December 1, 2004 yep the difference is quite noticable in these temperature isnt it typical though lower temps=more power but less grip to take advantage of it are these the sort of gains you get with a fmic?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goodridge 0 Posted December 1, 2004 Ditto! Been out in mine 2nite too, and to be honest really didn't want to put it away for the night! It was going like F!?* The MFA was showing an outside temp of 1degree :shock: It really was pulling like a train! Then I see Darren has chip and pulley kits on offer!! :D Best get on the phone tomorrow!!! 8) 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yandards 0 Posted December 2, 2004 It just goes to show that air temperature/density is everything on a car with forced induction - a spot of moisture helps too! Glad I am planning on fitting that shiny new Merc Sprinter intercooler now then... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted December 2, 2004 I sooooo wish I could see how J-DUB goes with her Golf intercooler now that the temps have dropped... :cry: Bet she would have been evil! :twisted: :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted December 3, 2004 Definately feeling the difference in my motor... -1 degree centigrade according to the MFA this morning on the way to work! Zoom zoom :) I thought the car was just losing power a little throughout the previous months but I guess that was just the summer & warmer weather.. i've got the grin back again now, believe me :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
