did you break in the new clutch for 500 miles? Not sure if rev matching is good for breaking in a clutch, im sure someone will chime in

My clutch would do that when I first got it installed, rev matching helps it alot. My clutch probably has about 1k miles on it and if I dont rev match it will jerk once I downshift a couple of times. Rev matching ftw.
