So I was on my way to work earlier today and I noticed my car was running pretty sluggish...I don't have my boost gauge wired and completly installed yet unfortunatly. It feels like it's not boosting to its full potential, I'm debating whether or not it's the weather...It was really moist and humid around 75 degrees this morning...I'm not sure if that would make it lag in some way or not, I remeber in my old truck it would hold it back make it sluggish...Any thoughts? I haven't pulled a CEL yet so idk.

 

check and see if your coolant temp sensor is the black one... go to ecstuning.com and it should show you where it is

 

the weather does take a toll on my car, however 75 is pretty cool out compared to it being 103 here yesterday

 

Well if you think about it hot and humid is the worst for your car. Hot=higher IAT's=smaller volume of air going into your engine because the air's hot. Humid=higher concentration of water vapor as opposed to air in the atmosphere=even less air going into your engine. It's the absolute worst conditions you can possibly have for a turbo car.

 

So even if it is the black one and if you're trying to say it's bad, it's a sensor it would pull a CEL and I haven't, Yet...

 

Yea that's exactly what I thought...Because when I step outside my skin feels wet...idk we'll see what happens when it's not so shitty out.

 

Hot weather and turbo cars arefar frombuddies.

 

im in charlotte, nc and it hit 106 here today...car was running noticably slower

 

yes but humidity + fog or any moisture for that matteris a turbo cars best friend. TheIC just soaks all that up.

 

I heard that in alaska stock TT's run 10's
