My car runs insanely good at 70 degrees. 90's or higher it gets alittle too rich....smelly and black smoke under heavy load. 50-60's i get alittle lean. not enough to do damage but I stay off boost in those temps.
Its weird my car gets rich when its colder, its I have a feeling my temp sensor in my maf is not working right as it reads crazy low on my scangauge, I cant wait till I get my AIT from guru but looks like he's a lil busy these days

Ace, generally cars get leaner in the cold.

That's why it's best to have a nice cushion in your AFR while tuning when it's cold out.

Yamaha, What are you using for IAT's? Did you buy a sensor that plugs into the Hydra?

Yes I have the Hydra air temp sensor welded into the charge pipe right before the BOV.

I'd say it depends on where you live. In Detroit we get both extremes so I do get my tune touched up.

On my best dyno run it hit 340whp 346wtq at 10psi.
