i would do the 1-2 shift, because i know that personally i have A LOT more problems hitting 3rd gear than 2nd. if you miss a gear while powershifting say hello to the revlimiter

power shifting is fine as long as you dont miss and or anrnt making ass tons of power threw a stock tranny.

I power shift 1-4 i drop 2-3 tenths n/a doing this. Its not hard at all.

if your going to powershift 1 shift you might as well do them all. just drive it like you stole it and you should be fine.
