Question high intake temps+ lower idle + increased turbo lag?

so long story short, my car's started to idle a little weird, it idle's leaner now and the vac. is down a little bit on my profecB spec2, however once in a blue moon it will idle like it did prior, it idles at mid 13's for AFR and i notice it sounds like a miss at idle, however when it IS back to normal, it's mid 12's and sounds smooth....

as for intake temps, it's a little warmer here in calgary, +25celcius most days yet the intake temps are 44celcius-50.... any idea what could cause this?, aswell.... i do notice an increase in turbo lag especially when it's hot out.... may sound like a stupid question but is that normal?...

the turbo seems to take a few moments longer to reach max boost, the power seems there, it's just that the turbo is laggier....

any idea guys?, i'm kinda stumped, i'm running a power FC and have checked every setting, aswell i have adjusted the TPS and throttle cable.... both to no avail....

thanks....
