I agree. My shifts are a bit clunky unless I shift above 4,000 in 1st and 2nd. If under 4000 I give the gas a little blip as I shift to the next gear. This matches my rpm with the car. I think the car unloads quicker than I can shift and when I do shift I'm not rev matching any longer. Thus the clunk.
