I understand (and feel) how badly temperature increases hurt the R's power and why. I also have read that altitude increases really help turbo's, I assume because the turbo will still spool to 13 (or whatever) psi while non-turbo's are still pulling in less dense than usual air.
What effect does humidity have on our R's and turbo's in general. My instinct would be it increases power based on the air being more dense, but I'm curious if that's correct.
Here in Ohio we just hit a week where it will be partly rainy and 90-95 degrees for the next 5 days or so. The humidity is sky high. On my ride home from work in over 90 degree weather I felt SOO much power though. I was disapointed I didn't get enough opportunities to open heR up, but it really felt juiced.
