Default Tranny Help

okay well the prob im having is...going from second to third, third gear is alittle hard to get into only when i really get on the car...this prob just started happening about 1,500 miles when i had my turbo installed..now i installed a brand new stage 2 clutch that would hold the power im putting down....so i no the clutch isnt the prob..the tranny is in pretty good shape to my knowledge...now i do no my motor mounts have alittle wear in them and with the turbo setup maybe the motor tourqing back and maybe putting a bind on a shifter cable or linkage...now it doesnt really grind but goes in hard and pops alittle..but under reg. driving conditions the car shifts great...what do u guys think?

Try changing your tranny fluid. Could also be an issue with your Clutch Master Cylinder, not fully disengaging the pressure plate.

Yeah what I would do first is see how bad the mounts are. But if there just a bit worn then that SHOULD not be the issue. Try to bleed the clutch lines and see if that helps. Mine does the samething and It's a bit of a beatch but I don't have the time or when I am working on the car I always over look it. Goodluck
