Default Power decrease as temperature decreases?

Hi all,

I'm running a 3.5T v3 in my TC car, and it seems a bit slower (less rip) than it used to be. Recently I also installed a fan that pulls air out of the motor, instead of blowing onto it, the setup is made by Team Powers (aluminum version).

The motor usually comes off the track at about 155F, I think it used to come off closer to 170 or 175F.

Sorry, if this has been asked and answered, but I couldn't find anything in my initial search.

Thanks.
Ethan
