Default its hot and humid and I'm losing power...

I was dring around last night and found that my car didn't feel as powerful as it has been. Its been hot and very humid, but could it affect the power that much? I noticed that EGT has been low (sometimes 200C lower when cruising)...I guess my car is gonna suck in the summer.

Has anyone been experiencing this? If so what can be done (besides the CO2 stuff)

Have you programmed your PFC to compensate for warmer weather?
