manual tranny

[aaron0558]

Hey all, Anyone here with a manual tranny find it ridiculous to drive with the a/c on?? With the a/c off I find I get a more syncronous shift engaging the gear/clutch released before applying gas which is different than any other manual I have driven, I'm used to letting off the clutch and applying gas at the same time. With the a/c on I have to apply slight gas before engagement otherwise the vehicle seems to "slam" if you will, into gear. It almost takes full concentration to drive the thing with the a/c on. I was just curious if anyone else experiences the same thing or do I need to take lessons??
