When I was seeing events in the -2.5 range, those corresponded nicely to some low-to-mid-throttle bucking. But yea, now that I'm down to this level it all feels fine. I'll stop trying too hard...
That said, I'm totally okay with smoothing out my low-to-mid level performance by "filing off" a few better performing lumps, as long as it doesn't make the efficiency really suffer. Of course, WOT is another matter entirely: when giving it the full beans I'm okay with a few lumps. As it stands I've gotten my tune about as smooth as the OFT 4, better sub-3000 RPM cruising performance, and basically back to stock fuel economy. (OFT 4 was always a couple MPG hit.)
Adopting the MY-17 Minimum CFP Delta and more aggressive Transient Retard tables has really helped the mid-range drivability of my USDM '14. Thanks for sharing those hints!
