noob question: so how exactly does this work? typically, when you shift you have to release the accelerator for a split second so that the RPMs don't shoot up. Does this prevent the RPMs from shooting up?

Nope..

It's called NO Lift Shift.

Meaning you Keep the gas pedal to the floor when you shift

Brilliant

Wonder what that and a power hike will mean for acceleration

My M5 effectively does this with its SMG transmission (single clutch flappy paddle gearbox) when in the most violent setting and traction control off. The shifts are hammered home with the throttle fully on (if foot is burried) and it is VERY violent, but quite fast! Of course the car came with 500hp and now has over 600 (Dinan stroker), but it also weighs over 4k lb! In this little 2700 lb car with some boost perhaps it'll be a fun show! Plus you actually get to row your own gears, so it's much more involving. Win-win in my mind.
