Did you reset base boost after fitting?

When I fitted a JT 3" turbo-back system to my otherwise-standard '96 9K Aero, base boost fell from 0.48 bar to 0.38 bar, probably due to the lower gas velocity mentioned elsewhere. I reset base boost to 0.46-ish and it definitely picks up more quickly then before I fitted the exhaust system.
When you say response is slower since you made the change, which change do you mean? If you made all those mods at once, it will be hard to tell which of them slowed the response.
