To have our cars act like a cable throttle car would be awesome, I so hate the FLOOR it from a dig and the car says "OH WAIT a second you have the pedal all the way down" Tho if I go 1/4 throttle and slowly mash it the car seems to accelerate faster. That's just hard to do LOL wanna smash it !

So, there is no way they can give your the code for your tune? Though, might not be a good idea, but tell them you waive their responsibility if your car goes kaboom! =) Kidding aside, it is only the throttle you are playing with. I changed my throttle MAP so many times and flashed my car maybe close to 40x or more and never had a single issue. I just let Seymore4 do my fuel ratio and sometimes when summer or winter comes, I add or lessen the fuel table on the high load /WOT (wide open throttle / pedal 2 d metal) rpm side of the table. I noticed that when season change, my Summer WOT AFR is spot on at 12.8- 12.9:1 but gets lean at 13.6- 13.9:1 on WOT during Winter time . Winter season has denser / cooler air = more air , you add more fuel so it does not run lean. Summer time , thin air /warm = less air you lessen the fuel so it wont run too rich. If I tune my car on winter, I have to lean out (lower fuel) table during summer to get the same 12.8-12.9:1 WOT AFR of the winter tune. I heard some techs says it does not matter since the ECu will adjust, but I did experiment it for 2 winter/fall and 2 summers by data logging my runs.. It does change the WOT AFR with winter and summer season
That is the reason why I have this Uprev Map setting like this below.

MAP1 : Performance Summer My throttle Awgd8 Blend 12.8-9 WOT
MAP2 : Valet mode 3K RPM max.
MAP3 : Fuel Economy (seymore4 tuned) with stock EX35 throttle.
MAP4 : Performance Summer wstar throttle.
MAP5 : Performance Winter Wstar throttle 12.8-9 WOT

I am not sure if also the winter fuel vs the summer fuel has significant impact on Performance too!

You will definitely feel a big difference on how the throttle react on just my AWGD8 Map 1. You only have to press the pedal at 1/4 throttle and it goes right away. I cannot imagine using my MAP with a close gearing ratio like the G37. Maybe just use the D or DS mode for smoother acceleration from the dig.
Though, MAP Awgd8 # 1 is very close to wstar Map, it just that you only have to press it less or around 1/4 pedal push to feel the torque or responsiveness. It is instant once you push at 2K RPM at the right gear.

I wish someone test my MAP and see how it feels. So far I might have to remove the Map AWGD8 # 3 since it is too aggressive on the lowend and strained a bit towards the midrange ( on my car ) Maybe yours is different. I highly recommend testing my AWGD8 MAPs. # 2 and # Blend 2/3.

So far one member (merkil) commented on my Awgd MAP # 1 post # 276

I'll be driving for a week straight on one and then another to get better impressions. Both seem like good options though.
