I agree with Walter its called rev matching not power shifting. Its not all that great for the average street trans. Racing trans have straight cut gears for this reason. And logically it doesn't make your upshifting any faster because you have to let the engine speed drop to get the gears to mesh. Might as well clutch it and save your trans.
