Whereas in the 80's and 90's my S4 feels like it loses a cylinder (80's) or two (90's) beginning after 4k rpm, and the slowly recovering full power by 6k rpm, this morning all I felt was a small dip in the powerband at 4k rpm, and full power was seemingly restored by around 4500-4700rpm. Maybe I can get that water injection kit installed this weekend.

They're on my list, but will not solve this problem...
...even the best intercooler in the world will get heat soaked while sitting for a half hour in 100 degree heat in 5 o'clock traffic in Houston. Water injection will fix that much faster than waiting for the intercooler to cool off.

In 100F heat, I lose probably 90 lb-ft@4000, tapering to 50 lb-ft@5000, and maybe only 25 lb-ft@6000
Today it only felt like I lost 30 lb-ft@4000, 10 lb-ft@5000 and 0 lb-ft@6000.
