That is why the Lancer EVO has the intercooler on the front (colder the air - more power in the engine).

Had an early start, warmed the car up, had a **** in a Max-Power Nova sat up my harris, so gave the car some welly and couldn't believe how well it was going, almost felt like I had the PPP fitted or something
Obviously the Nova got past me
