Im guessing he is talking about spark plugs. Most SC companies recommend 1 step colder from stock at 8psi or less. I don't know too much about PWSC, but I think that would be fine

So my originally intended smartass answer of ...when it runs like crap it's too cold... would have been better.

Actually I have heard that these are prone to overboost in cold(dense) air or climates. Wondering what everyones thought was about that.

Depends on your tune, if it's an aggressive tune you might run in to trouble. I've seen it happen.
I actually sold a couple SVT engines directly to Powerworks for warranty jobs.

I think it's a mild tune. Was on the old car for 35k without trouble.

Well you'll find out won't you?
On the plus side, used Zetecs are dirt cheap from salvage yards.
