Is there any hope of implementing the latter with ECUtek custom maps? or do our cars simply lack the hardware (i'm assuming cars like the 370z use shift gate sensors or something of the like) to make that happen?
Seriously great question. I will need to look into this but as for how the system works now it is a time based throttle percentage opening at a specific RPM. So If you are at say 4000 RPM and downshifting, the vehicle will open the throttle X % (ex. 25%) for Y amount of time (ex. .2 seconds). So it does not hit s desired RPM target.

Here is an image of what the table looks like.



Now having a desired RPM Target when downshifting based on current RPM and gear selection to provide the correct amount of throttle input would be trick. Definitely something to look into.
