I agree. I hated the drone at 3000 RPM when crawling up the grapevine. I'm glad the engine and more importantly the exhaust note changed when I swapped out the ignition. It's much smoother and quieter.
Sounds like you're blipping the throttle when you're downshifting. Never could get the hang of that in the Jeep.
Once you get the feel for it, it's second nature and you'll practically never over/under rev when downshifting. Of course, these days I know there's Nissans out there that rev-match for you when you down shift one of their manual trannies.
