Default powerclutching in high rpm

Is their any secret that you guys do with your manual transmissions on forced inductions B-series engines.
I am running these kinds of motors for years now and I always have the problem that I cannot shift fast enough in high rpm (9000rpm)
If there is something that you guys do, pls let me know. Thanks.

Honda tranny's shift fast enought for everyone else, the issue lies in either the man shifting it or the tranny itself...

Shorten your clutch pedal, shorten the throw (not height) on your shifter, start weight-training your left leg every night, and enjoy faster shifts.

...if you have a single disk. i know in my evo, i get locked outta gears once in a while cause of the single disk, not so much the honda but another reason why people like the twin...and the hydro tob.

raise the clutch pedal higher. i know the act's and a lot of other clutches are stubborn if you dont adjust it and they dont like going into gear cause the clutch isnt fully dissengaging.
