The Jim Conforti Shark Injector reprogram sharpened the throttle right up and eliminated any residual lag of the fbw. I love my shark injector. I'm getting one for the wife's X3. Just a thought for you as well.
Also...check your disa valve---that can cause goofy stuff if that flap is well...flapping around.

+1 on aftermarket software, my old VW needed a "chip" mod for it to have smooth throttle response, shark injector sounds nice i'll have to look it up, or you could always go Dinan stage 1 software for 300 bucks or so?
I will also look into the DME software update from the dealer, is it free and would it apply to pre-facelifts? Sometimes i feel that drive by wire lag and its annoying!
Haven't done the DISA full upgrade yet but I replaced the seal with a silicone o-ring from G.A.S. and it got smoother, the flap was working flawlessly as far as I could test so I didnt bother with replacing the assembly, yet.
