Coyote In The Heat

[S650sunshine]

It’s crazy how temperature and A/C kills majority of the power. 100 degrees Fahrenheit + A/C at 4.

Heat is your enemy with any ICE engine.

Well maybe a chunk of it, not 51% I wouldn't think.

@S650sunshine ...... heat AND humidity. Humidity is a killer too.

Honestly my dark horse is one of the few cars I have owned that handle the heat pretty damn good. Im in az so it was 118 the other day all my temps were beautiful, aside from intake air temp obviously. I didn't feel like the car was down on power at all, felt normal.

A fellow AZ dark horse!

I have to admit I was shocked when I drove mine for the first time last summer. With the AC on, the temps stayed far lower than I would have guessed in the heat.

Run E30. I have been and I datalog the dogshit out of my new 25 and I see no more Cat over temp enrichment intervening as well as no knock. So aside from IAT or ECT reduction, Im getting about as much power as I can in the heat here in Florida.

E30 is about the limit of what you want to run as well. e40 is too much with no added benefit no matter what any youtoober kid says with his butt dyno.

I agree, my dh stayed cooler in 110+ heat than my wifes 24 gt non pp did in 70-80 degree weather lol.

My GT temps are fine as well. I would think the ac and hot air intake that killed some power.

I always thought humidity was a power increaser. Denser air, increased mixture cooling from the water in the same way water injection works.

It's not denser air. There's more water and less air. You can generally add a tiny bit of timing in it.

You guys have a litany of coolers which helps a lot
