Since the temps dropped the supercharger whine seems to have almost dissapeared. The car seems to have all the power it ever did but no whine, or very little. The other thing is when taking off in first gear once I hit about 3000 to 3500 rpms the car just takes off. Its like night and day where it used to be more smooth. What do you think? Does colder weather affect it that much or maybe its just a coincedence. The other thing I was thinking was maybe it was the throttle body which I have never messed with.
