Default Times from winter to summer

What im wanting to know is how bad has your ET with your setup changed from good cool weather to this badass heat!!! Not changing anything would help compare the times also. We brought a friends truck 04 ECSB V-MAX with OBX LT headers, Tune, Volant intake, Servos and shift kit, 3600 stall and stock 3.73 gears with stock G80 over the past weekend, but it was only 1/8th mile racing and went a best of 8.50 and my truck RCSB is 8.0's in heat, since ive never ran in good cold weather.
GIVE ME SOME INFO PLEASE

i believe the rule of thumb is like .5seconds slower in the hot weather compared to a nice cold day....
