I've owned my S197 for almost3 years, and it still continues to amaze me how muchthis enginelikes colder, drier air. After being in the 70-90 F/60-80% RH range for the past 4-5 months, it dropped down to 40 F/40% RHaround here last night, and once again itfelt like a new15 hp modwasinstalled on my car.
And because I'mnot a cold weather person,theextra performance alsohelps to shortenthe long winter months.

Dude, no kidding! I was going to post the same thing this morning as I took the stang out and it was in the 50's and felt like I added another 50hp. It was a blast and just pulled like mad!!!!

You guys are just finding out what we out here already knew. In fact, MPG has gone up into the 27's mpg every week since it began getting down into the 20's here.

Please note thatI had stated "still continues" and "once again" in my post. Theyshould indicatethat I'm not "just finding out" that the S197 produces more power with colder, drier air.
But nevertheless, I am still amazed.

Maybe this means that the ram air hoods might add some HPs??? any thoughts?

It is very amazing what colder air can do for our cars. The temps have been falling here in Iowa also. Runs like a raped ape now!
