Default Clutch "slips" from 3k-4k?

It might have been doing this all of the time, so I dono

Anyways heres the story...

When i floor it in like 2nd, 3rd, or 4th gear and at 3k the rpms seem to go up way faster until around 4k then it seems to accelerate normal after that at full throttle still

im not sure if its actually slipping cause i can take my car up 9k without slipping

it still grabs good when i shift into 2nd from 1st at 8.5k

could it be my setup or something?

poor man r with ctr pistons s2s2 cams

exedy stg1 clutch maybe 6k on it? 11 lb flywheel same mileage

Are you sure your tires aren't spinning?

The slave cylinder on the transmission. If you just replaced the master cylinder and just dumped fluid in, you'll have to bleed the line. The air in the line could be causing you're slippage.
