Default Smoothless after chipped

After driving my car for 3k miles with the APR software, I've been noticing it is hard to drive smoothly. The car jerks when I shift fast less than 3k rpm, unless I give it more transition time then it's ok. Above 3k rpm, it can shift fast and smooth. Does that mean the car want me to shift above 3k rpm everytime?
I switch back to stock mode, and it will shift smoothly at any rpm range.
Does anyone have the same experience?

You need more "transition" time when shifting at lower rpms. You cant let the clutch out fast whenshiftingat low engine speeds and expectit to be smooth. You have to be slightly more gradual with clutch engagemnt. Thats just how it is when driving stick in any car.

Whats up with all these people not knowing how to drive a damn car... Why are you shifting fast under 3K RPM's in the first place? Are you in a hurry to go slow?

Couldnt that be solved by a bigger DV? Cuz it could be the larger boost pressure surging back into the motor too, thats why I went BOV even though everyone hates me for it
