Default 3 gear not shifting right.........

I was finally enjoying the WOT of the car with the T1 and PCM tuning and I have been running into a problem with 3 gear, as soon as it hits 6500rpm it hits the rev limiter of I believe 6600 or so and I have to let off the pedal for it to kick in, now it only does this when its dead stop to WOT. Anyone know what it might be? Could it be fixied with re-tuning the PCM? Or could one of the clutches be going bad. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

Is it the 2-3 shift or 3-4?
