Point is my observation may still stand when all is said and done. Once the system is tuned for California fuel, heat, humidity(N/A), etc. it will just crack 200 to the wheels.
however, that is still great no matter how you slice it!
I think Randy answered your questions and I looked at the graph and although the outside temps were in the 50's the shop temp was in the mid 60's during the runs, we could go back and look at the data logs for the runs, but because the dyno sits up in the air our intake temps were actually higher than that, most likely in the 70's.
Also looking at the runs the SAE correction factor was 1.00, meaning that there was no need for the software to correct for atmospheric conditions to get it to SAE corrected values, what you see is what the car actually put down to the wheels. In essence that means that no matter where you run the car it would put down the same SAE corrected power. the lower quality gas in California will cause you to lose a few HP, but not 35HP.
And if you think California is bad, Arizona makes you look like a tropical oasis in the summertime with temps in the 110F range
