Oops...forgot to add something to this:

GM, Ford, Audi, VW, and BMW's all use this trick to gain performance...been
doing it for years. (Even on Turbo Diesels). The Fords are the easiest,
just plug in the "Speed Brain" and recalibrate it.

In my opinion - it doesn't help. Remember more air means more fuel. If you
fool the computer into thinking the air is cooler - it will just add more
fuel
to "compensate". Since the factory calibrations (even in the MP computer)
are
overly rich, going richer will only make things worse (except maybe on
heavily
modded engines).
