I noticed a trend with my 545. When ever my throttle response was sluggish. I check the oil level and keep an eye for oil leaks.

Try one of each.

Check oil level and top it off (cold engine)
Check air filter. K&N Filter improved my throttle

I once saw a YouTube video where a guy took his 545i to 170 without the limiter...they're governed to 150 tho.
