It's short but you can catch the drift of what's going on. I'll try to get a better video sometime tomorrow or the next day, driving a different car atm.
yeah you hit the gas right when you shifted, the ECM couldnt compensate because when you shifted you were cruising but a split second after that you floored it

try giving gas before you shift

also i noticed the shift times and harshness greatly depend on current rpm

higher in the rev range the shifts are harder and more precise

like if i take it past 5k in 1st and shift, the tires will break loose from how aggressive the shift was

below its nice and smooth like butter

the more miles i put on the car the smoother the shifts get as well around cruising speeds, i hardly notice any kick anymore
