There is a big difference in gearing between first and second gears. All the other gears seem fine even with a big horsepower boost.
In traffic I will usually short-shift first and if I need to accelerate will use 2nd gear to dash past others on the city streets. First gear is sort of a granny gear just to get exhaust gases rolling and RPMs up.
Some of the RPM floating maybe for emissions as the higher RPMs will burn gases that may not be used during acceleration or sudden lift throttle.
