It makes no difference what you do with rpm during a downshift, because you are always in gear.
your right on the tranny always in gear im not sayin ur wrong at all i'm jus saying i do rev-match the car. It's the point where the gears change is when i rev-match it. It's exactly the same as a manual car (i do it on my mom's camry all the time) and i see no difference other then i don't have to depress a clutch to do it.
