I'm not sure what you mean by cold but where I live the temps registered -25 degree celcius on my SID and it felt much colder. At that temperature, I'm shifting ~2200 rpm and accelerating slohttp://wwwwly (with the minimum possible boost) for the next 10 km. Come spring time, I normally shift around 3000 rpm and on occasion get it as close to red line as I see fit :-) The point is to baby it in 1st and 2nd gear while safe to do so.
