bottle temps will be colder resulting in less power, unless you run a bottle heater.

Just make sure your engine and drivetrain are FULLY warmed up (at least 20 minutes of street driving). Also, the cold intake air is dense and the N2O may not warm as much as it did before, so you may be running run a little lean. You might want to richen the mixture a little bit if you have the ability.
