Default T5 trouble ...

I just put a pro 5.0 in my car and alot of times when i shit to second gear under normal driving it pops out? I think it has something to do with the shift forks, but it didn't do this with the stock shifter, anyone know what i should do? Maybe i need to move the shift stops back?

I had the same problem with mine had to replace the shift forks but if you just put a pro 5.0 in it I would check the adjustments.

Problem solved, thanks guys. It was due to a shotty installation and an 80mph vibrating drive to bradenton that loosened the bolts up on it, broke some skin on my knuckles tightenting them, but at least i can shift with confidence again .
