lowering the temperature and pressure dropping through the IC.
However, regardless of how cold ambient conditions are, physical
laws are consistent - in order to get high boost pressures, heat is
an inexorable result. A minimum temperature, below which the
engine would suffer, is probably below any temperature anyone
on this board experiences during the winter. Once an engine
has started and has warmed to 'normal' temperatures, an engine
with a lower operating temperature is win-win - there's less thermal
stress: the exhaust valves should last longer and combustion
pressures for a given bmep are reduced.
