Who needs a CAI/tune, just turn off the A/C!
I live in Georgia and until recently it has been over 100 degrees everyday. I bought my car in June and loved getting used to it. Then in July / August, I started to get used to its performance and started thinking that I wanted more. So I figured that I would naturally get a CAI/tune soon. Remember, the A/C is on full blast at all time and I'm still sweating in my long sleave BDU's! 
Well, September has come and has brought cooler weather with it. My car feels like a monster with the A/C off. Now I feel like I can enjoy the performance gains for a couple more months until I get used to it and decide to finally get a CAI/tune. It is amazing what turning the A/C off will do.

Tis true, but all that "other" driving does bog the car down with the A/C on.
I have an especially long A/C season here in the Desert Southwest and it sucks the life out of this car.... not too mention the inherent detonation problems that are just a way of life here in the summer.
A/C on + detonation and pulled timing = one sluggish hotrod

You should have seen my two boy`s faces when they saw the Mustang`s back seat. I took them up to the dealer on one of my visits. Neither one of my boys would fit in the back seat of a new Mustang. My 14 year old is already almost 6`2" and my 12 year old is about 5` tall. Almost instantly they asked how they were going to fit in the back seat. I just smilled a big s**t eating grin and said " You aren`t." It took a couple of seconds to sink in. That was worth the trip by itself.
