Ordinarilly this can be contributed to one of two things... tuning or worn 3/4 clutches. Was anything on the car changed prior to this happening?

Try adjusting the tuning files to correct the issue. I am afraid that the clutches on your stock unit are showing their wear, adjusting the tune will help for a while in some cases.

I would say the tune is the culprit but you say you had it done? something might be off with it? retune it!

I think I spoke with you on phone I am betting on and impending 3-4 clutch failure but lowering the shift point may help for a while
