I have the Steeda Tri-Ax Race shifter in my 2019 Bullitt. While it is a much better feel for me than the factory shifter, I doubt that it will solve your issue. However, I do think a better clutch would be a step in thr right direction.

I recommend the MGW shifter.

An aftermarket clutch may help some. But the stock shifter is pretty sloppy. I've heard some twin disk clutches can help. But either way...I have an exeedy clutch (single disk), had high RPM shifting issues going from 4th to 5th. I then installed an MGW race-spec shifter and haven't had an issue since - it also made all other gear changes much smoother.

The steeda tri-ax shifter is still mounted to the body of the car, so it may not resolve all issues related to that. MGW is trans mounted. The barton lets you mount either way (and keep reverse lockout if you want it).

Our stock shifters are mounted to the body. That could be part of the problem also. If you don’t want to spend the money you can get it mounted to the trans. Which could work.

The stock clutch is a twin-disk.

I would imagine it's fine, and the throw-out bearing or slave cylinder might have an issue.

Ah - didn't notice he was Gen3 - Gen2 is single disk. Either way, they aren't all created equal.
