I have been boosting 10 lbs lately, no big deal. Today my car feels sluggish. The boost gauge reads 10psi still and its right at the throttle body. No vacuum leaks, no intercooler piping leaks.

Ideas?

Yeah, higher temperatures = lower oxygen density = less power.

im not boosted but i due agree that heat makes a noticable difference in my car. i have a metal intake over the radiator on my KA so that has to add to the loss.

It should be... my ka feels like shit when its really warm. Since its not constantly hot around here i can feel it pull way harder when its cold.
