Weird issue keeps happening

So I just recently bought an 03 E55 and fell in love with it. I went from an 06 IS350 so the power difference is huge. Of course I've been enjoying it a little, but for some reason I have a weird issue that keeps popping up. A couple days ago, after a little spirited driving with an M6, I tried mashing the gas pedal to get into the exit lane (this is after mashing the pedal to about 120 to keep up with the m6) I felt like I had no power, as in it felt like the supercharger wasn't kicking in at all. Any suggestions? I just replaced the supercharger belt 1k miles ago and car is bone stock.

Welcome, ic pump 100%. Car is slower than a maxima when that happens. Even when the supercharger is on, you're still not running full power. There's tons of info on the IC PUMP. Replace the ic pump for the s/c not to turn off and you'll need a heat exchanger to keep that power consistent. Enjoy the car!

IC pump.

Get the newest design Bosch "010" version...... You will probably scare yourself with the extra power afterwards.

Don't listen to these fools. It's the intercooler pump.
