when i was on a family trip in the winter i wanted to keep the speed below 75 otherwise the engine noise would triple just a mph above that. keep in mind i have a weaponR intake and magnaflow catback. but i just got back from a trip today and i was cruising at 80+ and never once did it sound as loud as it did at 60. so im wondering if the difference in temperature from 30 to 90 would change that in any way?

at 30 deg the car would be running richer and you would be using winter blend fuel. it could be you need more foot to go that fast in the winter than in the summer
