The car didn't have the stock kd linkage, I totally agree that it would probably be the better set up.
Spooling? Turbo cars spool when they are building boost. Like spooling at the staging line, you hear the turbo spooling or building boost then when you let off the brake when boost has been built and the car takes off. A delayed shift describes it too, I feel the car wanting to shift but instead of slamming into gear it feels like the transmission is "spooling/or winding up" while the engine is revving as well. Then it catches the gear and hard shifts.
My apologies for using terminology that may have been confusing for some.
