There's significant overlap between gun fu and Power ups 1 in what they can do, though not in how they do it. The efects generated by Imbuement Skills ARE supernatural, while those generated by Gun Fu could be attributed to cinematic reality. Both can have a bullet curving around a corner.

Now, if you're really interested in Imbuements, you should consider Pyramid #3/4, for the Perfect Defense article, where it adds defensive Imbuements, so you can imbue your sunglasses to protect your whole face, your trench coat to make it hardened and more resistant against bullets,...

Now, after reading your thread on RPG.net, I think that the fact that Imbuements are supernatural, and cost energy, but give more spectacular effects, while Gun Fu could be considered simply impressive skill, isn't a downside for you...
