A max will get about 20 more wheel HP on a 40 degree day compared to a 90 degree day.

Header wrap

I too feel the difference in the 60 degree nights. The only thing is that all the other cars are getting faster too. But it helps to have an Injen CAI. Additionally I put some header wrap on my Injen back in August and believe it or not I thought I could tell a small difference. That pipe gets *HOT*, so I happened to have some header wrap laying around and since it acts as an all puprpose temperature barrier I wrapped everything between the filter and the MAF. When I park the car I get out and slip my finger in between two of the layers the pipe is just barely warm. Now I have a cool CAI
