But yes I think with the feature turned on it would be a little tricky to gear down and slowdown fast cuz that mode is meant for sprinted driving or curvy roads so it can power you out of a turn quicker and similar situations.

i own a 370z 6MT w/ synchro rev and i noticed the revs dont drop as quickly when i put it in gear... say im going from 80 at ~3k rpm and drop it to 3rd at ~6k rpm... the speed wont slow as dramatically as you would expect on regular MTs. IMO i think its because on standards no matter how good you are blipping your own throttle, it jerks the car (whether you feel it or not) causing it to slow down(faster). Where with this new feature.. you might feel a little skeptical w/o trying it.. it does it perfectly. doesnt jerk the car AT ALL.
