Ok what is the purpose of a cold air intake? i thought it was to get cooler air into the engine. the logic being that the cooler air is denser and expands more upon combustion giving more power.
So with that thought in mind, driving in colder temperatures should give the same effect as apposed to driving in a hotter temp.
Am I wrong? i have read many comments in these forums where people say they are getting worse gas mileage in cold weather, so what am i missing?
Am I to believe that I should get better gas mileage in 75 degree temps vs 30 degrees?
Metals conduct electricity better when they are cold so you should get a stronger spark, you only need the battery to start the car not run it. The engine is warm in what 5 minutes?
