That isn't how Extra Effort works in DFRPG and I wouldn't call it munchkinny so much as an extrapolation that isn't particularly supported by the text.

"Success adds 5% times margin of success (minimum +5%) to weight lifted, distance jumped, speed attained, etc. – or to ST, if it governs the task directly." Exploits p 20.

There's no provision there for increasing your DX through Extra Effort, just your ST. And given that ST is called out directly but DX isn't mentioned, there's no particular reason to think you can use extra effort to increase your DX.
