As we know Wally is the fastest flash ever eventually at least in the comics so could having to save Artemis make him become that fast?

Perhaps with a reference to the justice league unlimited episode "United We Stand" where he would run through Blue Beatle at maximum speed ripping the Scarab off of him. I think it will happen, making up for his lack of screentime. Also....I think Impulse only delayed Barry's time on Earth. He's gonna sacrifice himself like in Crisis to put an end to the nonsense from Light and the Reach. Then Wally takes up the Flash mantle! Agreed, Same way Impulse may have delayed Blue Beetle going on mode, he also may have simply delayed Barry Allen's death. Barry willl tap into the speed force and sacrifice himself, and Wally seeing  his mentors sacrifice will be inspired to take up the good fight again. The Team has just lost their trump card, Blue beetle, so it can be assumed Wally will return. Greg Weisman has said himself, that the main characters will always remain to be the focus of the shows story, so he'll be back for sure. Perhaps he'll rescue Artemis as the Flash?
