Seems a bit slugish?

With these current mods do you think my bottleneck is the stock intercooler or the manual boost controller? I was out today and I dont really notice diffrence between now and befor the LEXAFM 550'S and SAFC II? It is going to the shop to be tuned on a dyno. But I want to get the intercooler at least before I go.

Walbro Fuel Pump
SAFC II
ARP Head Bolts
Rebuilt turbo with the 60-1 wheel

if the SAFCII is not tuned properly you will not notice a difference from that and the Lex AFM until it is done correctly, and yes your stock intercooler is holding you back a bit, not the MBC though Electronic Boost controllers at your stage isnt really necessary except for more on the fly fun.

The SAFC has not gotten to a dyno yet, I have an appointment for Friday. I was trying to get the intercooler before then. If they tune it before the intercooler upgrade will they need to do it again after the intercooler install? I dont want to pay for 2 tune sessions.
