Yes/No: Is it normal for boost to spike higher during cold, winter weather than during warm weather?

But, you could see a higher initial spike. If the wastegate duty cycle is kept at the same initial
starting point, you're going to have more boost until it regulates downward. Thus, a higher initial spike.

With regular N75 and Motronic, no, you should in fact see LESS boost...
When I was using the N75 with GIAC X last year (Stage 2+), I could boost maybe 14 PSI instead of 17 PSI; the air being more dense = less needed work to obtain same results in term of MAF.
With a standalone EBC setup however, cold weather like today makes me smile! Cold air is like rocket fuel...
