Power loss

Power loss
It's been hot in Chicago for past few day and I noticed low end power loss. I have Frankencar/JWT intake. When I launch It feels slower and at around 3k RPM, I get a power surg. My filter only has 30k miles, I got new coils and I had fuel cut TSB done. I think it's just hot air in the engene compartment rubbing me. Once car starts rolling and cooler air starts coming in, power comes back. Do you think I'm right or do I need to get it checked out?

I'm investegating the idea of creating a heatshield. I noticed that Franken is developing a prototype listed under stage 3. I have also noticed that almost all other intakes of the same type for other cars come with that very thing.

The general opinion is that POP-intakes provide better results at high-speeds and when the weather is cold...the CAI doesn't provide any real value.

I don't know about that, Michael. Even in the winter, an automobile engine generates enough heat to cook meat!
