Default let's talk heat-soak

everyone knows that every vehicle will run better when it is colder out thats a given. However, how much slower do you run with some bad heat soak going on. who has run in cool temps and then again when it's hot as hell out with the same setup, how much better did you run when it's cooler? please list mods, and if you know when your tune starts to pull timing due to IAT's please post that too.

Ive seen time fluctuations of 0.5 seconds as a result of weather or DA all else held constant. A winter ET with dry air is 0.5 faster in my truck compared to a summer time run.
