Is turbo delay on departure after replacing only large intercoolers?

Changing the intercooler should not cause any turbo Lag. I could be wrong but I think that's what your asking!

Yes, a larger intercooler can potentially contribute to more turbo lag

This but questionable if the butt Dyno could tell. Larger volume of space to pressurize before the pressure hits the throttle body.

You shouldn't see a difference on stock turbos before/after an intercooler install.

This is data from my car early in testing back in 2023, the boost plot is identical.

No. Won’t make any noticeable difference.

I didn't notice anything different. Never really felt lag in this vehicle before or after the IC upgrade. Capable 3L V6 plus twin small turbos that make for quick spool up I suppose helps.

You definitely notice the lack of quick heat soak and timing being pulled with a larger inter cooler.
