Question: Intercooler upgrade before adding more power?

On repeated pulls I can feel the car soften as temperatures rise. Would you prioritize an intercooler before adding more boost, even if the current setup is otherwise stock? Trying to diagnose before I book a shop.

Write down what you already tried. A second data point from another 2016 Chevrolet Camaro owner helps more than a generic diagnosis. Then you'll know the next fork. A shop burned me once by skipping that step. Might be overthinking it, but I'd rather overthink than overspend.

Don't overfit one forum story to your car. If it still isn't clear on the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro, a specialist hour can be cheaper than another round of parts. That's where I'd start. If you share a photo of the worksheet, easier to sanity-check. I'm keeping receipts and dates in one folder.
