01 LB7 Sluggish Take Off

Hello I'm new here but here goes, I have an 01 Silverado 2500 HD Duramax with the Allison 5 speed. It has an AEM Brute Force Intake, Banks Dual 4" monster exhaust, and a Banks Six Gun Tuner with the PDA. I went out to pull a buddies jeep out of the mud last weekend and encountered some very wet/sloppy conditions, the truck handled it all fine, my air filter got wet so of course she smoked a little for a few seconds and then all was fine. I parked the truck till I could get around to cleaning it and when I did start driving it again it was real sluggish on take off juntil the turbo boost came up then look off like normal, today I dumped some STP diesel treatment in with a fresh tank of fuel and it has improved a little bit but is still not the same, she isnt smoking or doing anything out of the ordinary other than the sluggish take off till boost comes up does anybody have any idea's? Any help would be much appreciated I love my truck and it's killing me that somethings wrong and I cant diagnose it. Dirty fuel filter maybe?
