Agreed, rev hang is real, but what I meant was is that it does not affect shifting, that is what is mental. Once I realized that it does not "get in the way" of shifting, I just ignored it and found that I could shift with no problems, even power shifting while being in the high rpm range. I actually disabled rev hang and for two weeks drove without it, and hated it. I found that the rpms would drop to rapidly and the car would jolt between shifts. I ended up reflashing and re-enabling it. That said, yes you need to allow the synchros to do their job.Well not exactly. Rev hang isn't mental, it does exist. OP never stated that he couldn't shift or it grinds or he mis shifts. Said he couldn't shift smoothly. To which I said you could address this by slowing down your shifting to allow the rev hang to wear off and the revs to drop.
I agree with you that rev hang is annoying, but that's about it.
BTW, I was not addressing the OP mis-shifting or grinding, what I was addressing is some complaints people have had blaming their problems with shifting on rev hang, when in fact rev hang has never gotten into the way when I drove with it, even when I was driving spiritedly
