Default temp=loss of power

first i have a hatch with a b18c in it on 17 c2. this is my question; when the temp is around 6of i have massive hose power, but when the temp is around 80f it seem like i loss a lot of hose power. i wanted to know why is this and what can i do about it? i was thinking i could change the air temp sensor or move my timing. right now i have my timing set some what advance.(the ignition is almost all the way to the front. is this my problem? please let me know tx!

just gotta be patient for answers somehow. cool air equals denser air which has more air molecules per volume so of course there's a lil more power to be had there. as for ignition timing, did u use a timing gun? just turning the distributor isn't a very accurate or safe way to go about advancing timing. also, unless u short the jumper by the ecu, rotating the distributor will have no effect.
