problem when shifting into 2nd @ redline
OK. Regular shifting is fine but when I go to redline and try shifting into 2nd it grinds. LOL Smh. Is this a clutch issue or should I save up for CF synchros?

But u wouldn't recommend cf synchros though. Redline at any other gear is fine. Just shifting to 2nd. And normal driving is NORMAL. LOL

If you actually make 400hp in the future, then you're going to want stronger-than-stock components in the trans. If you plan on driving for an extended period of time (years) before you make that power, then don't worry about carbon synchros, or anything better then stock, until you start building the motor.
