Cold air seems to be the VQ's best friend
 

The temperature has fallen to the 50's here in MA and I must say that the Maxima is pulling harder now that it's breathing cold air. The difference is incredible.

Yes, yes it is.:eek:

I agree, my ride has been breathing well. :) For now it's in the shop, getting paint. I can't wait to get it back! Have you seen the post in the N.E. forum reguarding a meet at the King Richards fair??

Negative. Isn't it out west though?

Re: Cold air seems to be the VQ's best friend
 

yeah it is just starting to get into the 60 where the humidity is not 80 to 90% everyday. Car feels so much better, which makes me happy.:D

Yup yup very true.
 

I dont know what mods you got, but when it gets cold in Blacksburg, my car definitely feels much faster. I say the natural cold air adds at least 10hp, but the gain is definitely feel-able by the butt dyno.

I agree! The engine just seems to open up more and there is more pull for sure!

I agree I notice that if I'm driving on the highway at night and driving all easy, when i gun it the car takes off, but then the engien heats up and whenever I gun it after that first time it's not as fast.

Agree. I love this weather.:cool:

does other vehicles like hondas get effected by cold air like the VQ do?

I think any car reacts good to cold air, you just notice it more with a V6. This is pretty much the first time this last month flooring it with all my mods and the CAI in 50 degree weather and I must say it is rather nice.

yup, i noticed this long ago but no one would listen to me. everytime i've been to the track it's been hot on the track. i would like to get one day where it's COLD COLD out to run before i sell but it's not gonna happen. the VQ is hugely affected by temp though.

My Toyota Truck with the 22R (four banger) power diffence wasn't noticable at all in cold weather

DMB, we'll listen to you more often now.

y tank u. you all think i am crazy and well you are right, but remember there is a fine line between crazy and genius.

No, 495 so. til it turns into 25. Carver ma. Near the Cape.

that's one good thing about the fall and winter.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Cold air seems to be the VQ's best friend
 

I know exactly where that is.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Cold air seems to be the VQ's best friend
 

i will test out the mass weather when i come up next weekend. i'll see if it treats the max well.

I was thinking this would be a nice "autumn" thing to do! There's a thread on the N.E. forum. I think some are interested. It's kind of pricey but it's very entertaining!

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Cold air seems to be the VQ's best friend
 

By the time you get here it'll prolly be hot!

the only good thing.

My old 93 with the VG loved it as well, you could definately tell the difference.

I have the cold air intake, my car runs much better now that the temp has dropped, in the summer I could not bark second at all, now I can conssitanly :D

Now everybody dont go WOT while the car is still cold. Its no good

Let it get up to running temp.

The temp in MA is just right now. Any colder the car will just... well you guys know NE winters.

The NED track should be cool tonight DMB. Give it a shot and represent. ;)

i had to work plus my bottle is dry. i was gonna get a huge one or a second one but i'm selling it all.
