No difference in performance with mine in the hot weather. But to be honest, I probably only gave it a bit during the night when the temperature was under 30 (28 according to the temperature display on Anzac Hwy ).

It was 35 dgrees the other day, and I was on the road all day. I expecteed it anyway, and do not push my car in the heat.I think the bigger intercooler would make a difference for me.I went to Calder with Geea on the same night in his car. It was still 30 degrees at approx 8pm when he ran but yet he still mamanged a 12 sec pass. I think the main difference was the APS cooler he was running as alot of the other cars were struggling.
