Transmission Upgrade? The factory U.S.-spec transmission is somewhat notorious for a weak second gear. If you are going to be drag-racing the car, or otherwise abusing the transmission, you may find this weakness.
One solution is to bolt in the upgraded transmission from the WRX STi. It's a newly-designed six-speed unit with stiffened casing and upgraded gears that SHOULD take whatever amount of power you can dish out.
It's obviously not cheap.
