If you are looking for that "smooth" shifting, you are best with just sticking to full auto because you will never be able to shift smoother than the auto, as the auto already automatically shifts at the proper RPM. The whole point of the paddle shifters is to give you a bit more control over your RPMs for taking curves/corners, as the one thing that the auto cannot do is know what the road will be like (not yet anyway); however, if your goal is just to be able to accelerate fast, you will never be able to beat auto in that regards.

Even if you try to emulate the RPMs at which the auto shifts, you will not be able to react faster than the auto does, so you still will not be as smooth all the time.
