I’m gonna start out by relocating my intercooler pump. That could be the issue, maybe it’s flowing insufficiently. Then I’m gonna datalog and see if I can get anything from that. I won’t be able to get back out to the track until a few weeks. I’ll see if the site will let me post up my track time slips

Do a quick datalog just cruising around. If IATs are uncomfortably high i would question the IC Pump/Flow.

OP, log your IAT before blindly changing things. Also log fuel pressure, AFR, and check tune for torque reduction. Unless you were idling the truck before you ran the 1/4, it doesn't seem like high IAT would kill the power so much as to give you a 60' time that makes it seem like you hit the snooze alarm when the tree went green.

Ended up taking the front clip apart. Found a badly kinked intercooler hose leaving the heat exchanger, so I did a little rerouting, just mainly on the kinked hose. Left the pump and incoming hose from the reservoir, for the most part, the way they were. Pump seems to be pushing fluid way better than before

Cool. Glad that was a easy fix. Now get us some data haha..
You wont be able to look at the tune with the Autocal unless you have the V3 its linked to or its not linked to a V3 at all. But give it a try. Read tune off and get a quick datalog. Worse case is we wont be able to open the tune but with info from the datalog we can see IATs and timing and such.

Sorry if that came off as an ***, not ment that way. I just saw a huge gain from headers and free flowing exhaust with my blower and wanted to share that with the op. My boost dropped about 3 pounds and it picked up a few tenths in the 1/4. Plus, exhaust dropped IAT across the board under boost.

NP, maybe I wasn't completely clear that I ddn't think that a stock exhaust was the main cause of his problem.

My thought process is, like a lot of guys, semi luxury family haulers like Denalis and Escalades, you wanna keep them quiet and tame. If I had a Tahoe or a Sierra/Silverado, I would’ve did heads/cam and full exhaust. Just trying to keep my truck quiet and smooth for the family but surprise mustangs on the way to work.

That's how mine started. Haha. I feel you, I'm in the process of figuring out how to tame mine. It's too loud so I'm adding 2 more mufflers in an attempt to settle her down a bit without restricting it too much. I think I can find a happy balance.
