Saleen F150 feels underpowered

So i have a used 2020 F150 Saleen yellow label, came with an edelbrock supercharger on it, and according to saleens specs online, with the supercharged 5.0 and the tune it has, it pushes 720 hp.

I can’t find a lot of info on this truck online since it does seem to be somewhat rare or maybe just unpopular, so as far as my own knowledge and efforts to search i haven’t had much luck

I don’t personally have a lot of knowledge when it comes to making power, but i thought a supercharger is virtually supposed to have very ittle lag, and i notice that my truck feels really underpowered for what Saleen claims it’s capable of. It’s slow off the jump and just isn’t as fast as i expected it to be. Probably a full 3 seconds after putting the pedal to the floor before i feel any sort of power

So somebody please educate me, if this was your truck, what would your next step be? Am i asking the wrong questions? Would you take it to a performance shop? Or am i just being crazy and it’s probably fine? i just thought 720hp would be the kind of speed that would throw me back in my seat, but it doesn’t really do that.
