I have to agree. I have an 08 Si sedan. Before I put in the drop in K&N air filter, the bucking in the cold is extremely noticeable if your too high of an rpm. I just shift faster in the cold and you can't notice it anymore. HOweever. AFter I added the K&N, such a big difference, and the car feels and breathes so much better.

Also, I do have the same problem with fast shifting and gears grinding from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd. Pretty annoying especially when your clutch IS all the way down.
