Default Cold = Jacked up?

I noticed this last Thanksgiving after installing subs. It got cold, and my car was higher with subs!

Seems to be doing it again. My trunk is way up there. It'* more noticable when it'* cold too?

Cold enough to freeze? Or just cold? Your exhaust for the ELC freezing so it can't vent?

The ride height in the rear of the car is NOTICABLY higher. This is with weight in the trunk.
