No power changing from 4th to 5th

[BrettMRC]

Had an interesting experience yesterday...

Shifting at c6500rpm into 5th and there was very little power/no acceleration.

No errors, no warning lights, all temperatures and pressures normal.

Everything still running perfectly etc, no issues with hard acceleration before or after this.

It was almost like I'd run into a soft limiter of some kind?

Has anyone else experienced this?

It's a UK spec 2022 car, stage 3.

I had a similar issue a couple weeks back and assumed it was the car pulling timing due to the crazy heat we’ve had in Florida lately. I wasn’t able to replicate during logging and haven’t had the issue since. Since then, I’ve been driving the car a lot softer when it’s blazing hot out just to be safe and haven’t had an issue. Runs just fine in the mornings when it’s cooler but pushing it hard when hot definitely makes it run slower. So much so, I’ve purchased a new aftermarket intake manifold and waiting for it to arrive. Can’t wait to test it out and see the results.

Probably throttle closure from going over targets. Impossible to know without a log.
