The issue is the downshifting difference between 4th and 5th.

Yes, it's a big drop. I have a 3.54 (that's effectively the same as yourss) and the only thing I ever use it for is gentle highway cruising at 2000 RPM (70mph) or a little higher. It really can't be used for road racing. I do like the fact that when I do that though the car is actually pretty darn quiet. The wind noise is more than the pipes.
