another question, I'm a noob. When upshifting, is it better practice to release the clutch before I gas? Like, let the revs drop to match the next gear and release the clutch at the perfect timing, before I gas? Or is it better to gas a LITTLE bit while I'm releasing the clutch, so the revs don't overdrop (this is what I"m currently doing)?
What method would be best for longevity of the clutch and tranny?

revmatching is definately not bad for the car, but I suggest that you use it how it was designed. So shift normaly and everything will go good.
How you do the shifting is left up to you. When upshifting, the revs drop anyways. I just shift normal without even thinking. Don't pay too much mind to that. It's not like it matters whether you keep the rev or let them drop..
