boosted92hatch

i have a 96 hatch with a h22 swap. the motor was just rebuilt and has exactly 423 miles on it. i have a stage 5 ACT clutch and 94 accord shift linkage with 93 prelude si transmission, my question is when i drive the car just cruising around it shifts fine. however when i smash the gas and go to shift into second, it will NOT go into second gear. it doesnt grind or make any noise but it just dont go into second. i pull back hard as **** and still nothing but as soon as i only take it to like 4500-5000 rpms it shifts smooth. what the hell could cause this problem. any help is greatly appreciated. also i know when doing the swap people say if the shift cables are not put in right shifting issues may accure but it does go in gear when shifted under lower rpms. please help.

Does it have enough trans fluid?

dude how can i tell, the hasport mounts **** the engine back so as soon as i take the bolt out oil pours everywhere. but with the hasport mounts it doesnt sit level. like for instance when i change my motor oil 5 qts dont register on my dipstick cause the way the engine is angled. so i got a dipstick from a f22. its a inch longer and it registers perfect

its the clutch why a stage 5

cause i had it layin around and i know enough to know that under high rpms a stage 5 clutch will not stop it from shifting, its made for high revs. i found out its the linkage was binding were it dropped through the floor.
