weak hpop?

hey guys, got a ? for ya, i know these 6 spd trucks are not rockets outta the hole, but it seems like when im taking off there is very little difference in power when at half throttle and when at full throttle but once i get up past 2k and it starts to build boost i can feel the difference between half and full, but its not a whole lot. my guess would be HPOP? if so how difficult are they to change out?

I'd look for boost leaks first. A weak HPOP will usually struggle at the top end, not the bottom.
