It is most likely perception, but if it were any performance difference, as a Florida resident, it has been hot as balls, 100 on my coast. This can lead to a lower viscosity on your fluids and a more efficient powertrain. Once more, not saying it IS performance related, but this would be my best guess if it were.

My 2016 modded Mustang Ecoboost has been sitting in my Florida garage over the past 5 weeks while I was up in Indiana helping my girlfriend renovate her apartment building.

I get back and now have taken it out 3 times over the past 3 days and car seems absolutely supercharged, it's so quick that's it stupid. Before I left the car seem a little draggy with hints of turbo lag, all that now appears to be gone.

Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what is going on.

Thanks
TC
Well it is turbocharged.

I found your car, it looked lonely so I did it a favor... You'll be getting a bill.
