just installed an Apexi WS2 in my 99 lude, previous to this i had no instances of my current problem.

now, when i accelerate a little more than modestly, the revs will jump about 1000 rpm, and hold there until the car catches up.

I havent owned manual long enough to know whether this is a huge coincidence and the clutch has finally started to slip, or if there is something causing the car to over-rev after installing..

I dont really know what else i can say to explain the problem, but it happens across all the gears except for first. and it does it during the low rpm range for the gear.

FTW = help!
