curious who out there has a turbo/sc j-body and is will be driving it in the winter this year?
with the days cooling off i'm starting to think about snow again
anybody change octane, turn up/down boost, or doing anything differently than the summer driving?

All 3 of our J's are boosted.. Mine sits in garage for the winter, and my wife's usually sits under a cover. We both have dailys so our nicer cars get less wear/tear. My DD is a Z24 SC and its driven everyday. I don't change anything with the tune or anything. I get in and drive it.

I'm looking forward to raising boost. It gets cold in PA, but for most of the winter, the roads are dry.

I have a supercharged 2.4 living in colorado and i drive my car year around all i do is change my rim's/tires to all seasons on stock rims and go...car loves the cold weather when the ground is not wet!!
just be careful if it gets really cold.... i've heard of BOVs freezing shut and making engines go BOOM.
