Not necessarily - it depends on the driving conditions, weather (temp
mainly), and fuel blend.

Your gas mileage will suffer noticeably as well if you do any of the IAT
sensor mods mentioned.

DMLers,
I have notice that within the first 3 to 4 minutes of driving in the
morning, my truck is real neck snapper!! lol. It very apparent that I
get about 10 to 15 more HP within the first 4 minutes of driving the
vehicle after it has rested for several hours.
Is this due to PCM being 'open loop' mode until engine reaches operating
temperature and then switches to 'closed loop' mode?
Any way to get that first 5 minute performance... all the time ?
