Nothing wrong with the HPFP , its just your driving and knowing what your car doesn't like.

Stay out of 6 and 7 gears below 2k RPMs while trying to WOT, too much throttle or too sudden of throttle being applied

Cars of varying types generally shudder like that when you're not making enough power to propel it forward. But "cruising around" at 1500rpms is fine, but gunning it and expecting a response is pretty silly. Downshift your car like a normal person. FWIW the DCT runs a 2.56 rear end, meaning less torque multiplication in the higher gears.

If it does the same thing at 1500rpms in 2nd or 3rd gear, that may be something different.
