Check out that Intake air temperature.

Full grill block and warm air intake are working wonderful. It's 24*F 12mph wind.

I know winter brings bad numbers but I am just more motivated to beat my high score

Zero outside airflow and high intake air temperatures have given my KIA a decent power loss. I am getting a CEL for it. I have changed my driving a bit.

Now my foot is very heavy during my pulse. All low speed driving. I'm taking the secondary roads and taking my chances with the red lights. (I have never been good at timing lights. All of them seem like timer lights.) Allways P&G EOC. A totally new route with a top speed of 50MPH. I hate red lights but I think the lower speed will help.

I have more aero to do too. Fuel-up soon. Just hit 500 miles on the tank and I still have 1 line left before E.
