Actually, you need to read up on PHYSICS. I don't care if you have a 1000hp rated intercooler on your RalliArt, you will ALWAYS make more power when it is colder. Simple physics with colder, denser air producing more power. And no, it isn't just for our cars, or specifically for forced induction engines either. ANY combustion engine, no matter the kind, piston, rotary or turbine, will have the same results. Funny that this doesn't really affect cars other than the fun factor, but this is something that affects small aircraft greatly. A plane can take off from Denver fully loaded with no problem on a 1 mile runway at 40 degrees, land in phoenix to refuel at 100 degrees, and literally not be able to take back off with the same exact weight no matter the runway length because of the density altitude change and drop in horsepower. Can you tell I have been on waaay too many sketchy flights in small aircraft? End boring explanation....
