Car runs better with heat on

Anybody else's car run better with the heat on full blast? I swear my car makes more power and is smoother when I have the heat on full blast.

hmm... im not too sure, so one other guy has to double check this, but you might need a new thermostat, or something in your cooling sys is wrong, not too sure,
hope this helps, (cause if it is thermo replacement itll werk better!)

Hmmm, now that I think about it, the fans don't come on like ever, unless I have the AC on. I've never seen the other one on.
