Car seems slugish off the line

For the past 3 days now my car (mk6 dsg) has felt slower off the line than it normally does. it feels as if I'm driving a manual and letting the clutch out slowly, then once i hit 3k rpm its flying. before it had a good amount of bottom end now its pretty gutless and i find myself pushing the pedal a lot further now. I'm thinking the heat has something to do with it bc its been about 90 here and my passat would get the same characteristics when it was hotter outside as well.

If you are running stock intercooler it is probably heatsoak. Heatsoak ruins everything. Take your car out in the morning or at night and see if it still feels that way.
