ive got a corrado g60 which is supercharged and i have days when the car feels better than others and generally boosts better and goes better, not nesessarly to do with cold air etc...
I was wondering do turbo's feel the same? not always running at their best? have good days and bad days?

I had a problem a few months ago when the car would feel ordinary
one minute and fly the next.. make sure i use optimax now and have added some octane booster for good measure - seems to be ok now

yup most turbo/super charged engines will have "off" days due to ambient temp, a NA car may not feel the effect as much, but as a rule a combustion engine will thrive on colder denser air, so sitting in traffic on a hot summers day ur car will feel slower...
