car getting slower??

[lilcoop03]

I just put a 2.2 kb on my car a week ago. it made 603/525. the first couple of pulls felt killer on the street riding in the car bc i was coming from a pullied eaton. The last few days ive driven it, it seems a lot slower to me. The temps out have been in the 90's with high humidity and i believe it was much cooler the day off the dyno when it pulled so hard. The car still has a stock intercooler. Is this just the weather? Is it my stock intercooler? Could my clutch be slipping without flashing the tach? Am i just getting used to it? :shrug:

Yes its the weather and you are getting use to it. Also the 2.2 produces a good amount of heat which doesn't help. I would also suggest changing the intercoolerbut thats just my .02

Getting used to it plus heat will really kill the thrill...

I just upgraded to a Whipple 2.3L 2 weeks ago. I was kinda thinking the heat was killing me lately until I wacked a Viper today.

Like others have said heat and get a dual pass HE

 

[lilcoop03]

Skip the dual pass and get the killer chiller. With the temps you are driving in you will need it.

Exactly. Put a 3-way valve in and bypass the heat exchanger all together when it's really hot.

All of the above.(except for the clutch comment, you would see the tach flash):bored::shrug::beer:

Any belt dust accumulating around the upper pulley area?:shrug:
That would be evidence of belt slip.
