You should find a 911 with a good shifting 915 to compare. It may be that your rebuild needs to be rebuilt.

Close ratios and a really light clutch disk gets you to here

But you need a G50, close ratios, and a multi disk small diameter clutch if you want truly superb fast shifting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyM-egecTlw
