Yeah try that about mid august down here in florida... Spoiled northerner

But no running your heater I wouldnt think would noticably gain you anything for the discomfort you'd be endouring.

I'll second that... no gain for performance whatsoever by running your heater. Get a cowl hood or run a CAI system if yer so inclined. Yer better off spending your dollar on other mods tho. There's many people out there with +300hp motors with open elements in hot engine bays just as you.
