Default Drill Mod and still have High RPM pressure loss

I just had the below install ( and damn the drama just to get it installed ) along with having the drill mod done to help with high RPM loss of clutch pressure. Well its done now and I still have a hell of a time getting from 1st to 2nd and so on when it spins up fast.

What next?

I love the new clutch, it kicks a$$ and even lifts the nose up off the ground now I just want to also be able to change gears also.

That sucks. The next thing I might try would be to make sure all of your hydraulic lines are insulated from the exhaust heat. Take a look at your fluid and see what it looks like. Maybe try some fluid with a higher temp range.

Basically, a loss of pedal pressure means the closed hydraulic system is compromised--either by gas in the fluid (trapped in system or boiling fluid) or by fluid escaping (a seal leak somewhere, master or slave).

The master and slave are brand new, no leaking.
Tranny had to be rebuilt ( which was part of the drama above and why I asked about the input shaft in the tranny getting chewed up )

So pretty much the entire tranny is new, and with the drill mod I would have expected it to do better but at least that part still feels the same.

It doesn't feel like air in he lines, I 've felt that before and usually doesn't that affect all driving not just fast ramp up of RPMS? Most likely bioling.
