Default SRT6 seems sluggish this year

I don't know if it just me but it seems sluggish this year. Press the throttle and it feels holding back in getting up to speed. Tranny is in summer mode. Seems held back when doing manual switch as well. I did the throttle reset. My son also said it felt to him like it lagged and he was going to bring it up to me when I mentioned it to him.

It has 34K. The battery did go dead over the winter, so it may have lost some settings.

Anything to check on it? I haven't done anything with it except oil changes every year, brakes, that little transmission connector part a few years ago, and cabin filter. Its been a pretty much hassle free car for the years I have owned it.

I thought I would try putting in new air filter and sparks, though I see they aren't needed until 100K.

Then again, maybe it is just me. Perhaps remembering my MR2 when I could hear the turbo kicking in behind me, or the acceleration of my sport bike and wondering what is happening now.

And perhaps it is your intercooler pump ?

Was your order of a 61mm pulley recent, and if so, what company did you go through to get it, If you don't mind me asking? Thank you.
