shifting problem please help!!!!

as of last week my car was shifting fine and i was able to slam gears with no problem. I was then dynoflashed and everything seemed to be fine, the car ran buetiful. That night i took it for a cruz oin the highway and when merging decided to get on it a little and found when shifting fast to redline i was being locked out of basicalley everygear. I tryed numerious times and let numerious freinds try and we have all have had no luck hiting gears. even when grannyshifting i have to pull the sh** out of it just to get it in gear. Has anyone had this problem and do you think it may be from the tune or what, here are my mods if it matters ,,,t/b exaust, bushur intake,uper lower i/c piping, bov, xs frontmount, 272 cams , 680 cc injectors, 255 pump, act 2900 street clutch, boost controller, dynoflash

I wouldn't think the tune would have anything to do with shifting. Maybe your synchros are shot from all the previous high rpm hard shifting.

When you say "banging gears" are using the clutch or not using the clutch?

I have to think that is just coincidence. I mean think about it, there is nothing involved in getting a car in gear that the ECU has anything to do with. It's is all mechanical. If these cars had automatics or SMG gearboxes it could be a different story but our trans. are simple mechanical units.

theres a thread about that on here, its due to the clutch. the only way to fix it is to adjust the clutch pedal higher.

its on here https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ght=act+clutch

Clutch might be just wearing out and it's time to adjust it.
