Now that it's gradual it takes some getting used to... it's so gradual in higher gears that you almost don't even realize it's cutting power until you stop accelerating.

Thoughts? Opinions?
Personally I'd prefer it to be less gradual than it is, for the same reasons you cite. There's always a ? in my head about whether the ECU had started to cut my power before I shifted, it's hard to tell.
