I know how you feel, that's what driving a car with drive-by-wire is like. When I downshift I have to "blip" the throttle by punching it to the bottom (WOT) for a split second for the rev to come up just 1k rpm. it's ridiculous.  oh, that's on a MkIV Volkswagen, fwiw.

All I can think of would be a dirty/clogged air filter or related parts. having the open element should actually increase throttle response.

Best of luck!
