Heat will definitely reduce your power, but how much depends on all sorts of
things. T/C aircraft have tables which show how runway performance
deteriorates with heat and altitude, but this is also a function of lift as
well as the charge density. So its hard to say how much but i would venture
to suggest that you could be losing as much as 40% of your power at ISA +30
deg C which are the current temps.
