    Hello all! I run dyno sessions in a pretty cold region, and winter temps seem to skew my results. Power numbers look higher, but I don’t know if they’re genuinely better or just colder air increasing density. How do you normalize data in cold weather?

    Cold air absolutely boosts density and can make results look more impressive than they really are. It’s useful to compare similar intake temps instead of relying on the ambient number alone. When checking your car’s performance during winter sessions, the modules Dynotest https://dynotestpro.com/ monitor temperature inputs that feed into your analysis, helping you correct readings to standard conditions. That keeps the data honest and helps you decide whether a power change came from tuning or simply the weather. Consistency across seasons is key to trusting your dyno numbers.
