Wetsuit/Warm Water Correlation to Times

OK, I posted on here a few weeks ago and got some very helpful feedback, so alas I am back.

I have been focussing on my static in water (haven't even tried on the couch) and went from 1:50 or so up to 3:30 in about a week. I have been doing the tables a few days a week and find that I am pretty consistent. I did the (I think CO2) table the other day (that's the one where you decrese recovery time, right?) and on a hold of 2:30, I came up for one breath and went back down for another 1:30 without too much trouble.

So, my question is this...I am in the pool across from my house and while not COLD water, it is is still an outside pool (California). I am wondering if my timese would increase dramatically if I did it in a wetsuit since I am still a bit chilly in the pool staying still and all?

I'd love to get up over 4 mins and I am curious if anyone has an idea of how much difference it makes to have a wetsuit for static.

Any thoughts?

Cheers!!! (ps....before anyone asks...yes...using a spotter!!!)
