any person who owns (or has owned) a turbo car knows that heat is it's worst enemy, period. I use to own two '87 Buick Grand Nationals. one was a daily driver and the other was a race/show car. both of my GNs would run awesome as long as the weather was under 80 degrees or less.

unfortunately though, we get too damn many 90+ degree days here in central FL which means my 1/4 racing days only happened in the Jan to Feb periods of the year. otherwise I'm just killing the engine(s) with the ridiculous heat and humidity from living in FL.

by the way, my 135i is the same exact way. it runs very strong early in the morning but I can definitely tell the difference in 5PM rush hour traffic.
