A 2-1 downshift is done at a few miles per hour, usually while in traffic. I can't even imagine a 20 MPH downshift. Good on you for choosing the MT.

I've down shifted countless times coming to a light going under 10-12mph...sound nices too. I enjoy people quickly turning their heads and I know they're asking themselves "is that a manual or auto?"
Also I was preparing myself for my GTR next.....
