Clutch engagement feels vague and the throttle calibration and gearing are such that it’s difficult to get off to a smooth start and quickly execute a clean 1-2 upshift in succession"
I have been driving a stick for many many years and would have to say I agree with this statement in my 2020 M2c. Kind of disappointing.

Pretty much true.
Remove the clutch delay valve, flush the clutch fluid, install a rear shifter bushing (such as the Turner one), and then get a tune that modifies the throttle control.
I make a very specific tune for the S55 that manages the throttle control a lot better and more linear, removes revhang, and helps with some of the shifting.
