[QUOTE="HKusp, post: 16412733, member: 194957"] I have a 2009 with some mods, most are in my signature. I have added the CHE brace and have a rebuilt RXT that I sent to McLeod February of 2019 and had it rebuilt so it may have 12-14K miles on it. I have a MGW gen 1 and I am still having the 1-2 lockout issue from time to time as well as a 4-5 lockout above 100mph. I was running up I83 yesterday into southern Pa. and a WRX STi came up on me and we were playing around. Every time I was trying to shift into 5th from 4th, it was a no-go, not even speed shifting, I was taking my time and it was not letting me in 5th, I had to shift into 6th. I tried it several times and at a couple points pushed the clutch in and 2-3 seconds of trying but the lockout situation would not let me go to 5th. This is REALLY starting to make me angry at this point, something has got to give. It's bad enough that I am missing 1-2 at high rpm almost half the time, now once I am running at high speed, I can't go through the top gears. I beat the guy, but it still pisses me off. I REALLY like rowing my own gears but the automatic conversion is becoming more and more a reality to me the more I drive this thing and these issues keep rearing their ugly heads. Anyone else having this issue specifically above 100, or am I the "lucky" one? [/QUOTE]
