You can flow more cold air through a given size tube then hot air. It works the opposite of your theory. Cold air is denser. Warm air containing the same volume by weight requires far more space. With a given size exhaust you will flow less air if the air is warmer.
Your logic is TOTALLY flawed. hot air FLOWS faster because of the relative low density, as this hot air cools, it becomes more dense and slows down, holding up the hotter air behind it.
