I think I follow the white paper but think I may be missing something. If the throttle plate opens sooner and stays open longer during the course of the pedal's travel to the floor, than there is no way that there can't be an improvement in acceleration (even if its only slight). I did notice the 'dead' zone at the end of the pedal travel but it wasn't significant. I guess you just need to adjust your pedal work to account for the sensitivity on the front end versus the lacking response at the back end. It becomes a driving style preference. Which end would you prefer the pedal to be more responsive. That's the nice thing about the newer version which includes the ability to swith between modes.
