any other mods? cam, heads, intake?
Is it a T5, I assume?

If no mods, then 5500 would be about right.

it has trex fuel system, ignition boost, boost retard, 4.10 gears.

when shifting at 5500 rpm the power seems to cut out.

are you using a shift light or just watching the tach? If that is the case, by the time you react and shift, it is probably a little higher than 5500. Try setting the light or changing your mark on the tach to 5300 and see if that helps. You will actually be shifting closer to 5500 this way. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
