Don't think it's dragging because I tested the car with if it moves forward with clutch in.

I have the ACT 6 puck street clutch with lightweight flywheel. Ptuning turbo kit if it matters. #CuzBoost

Any help will be much appreciated!

A light flywheel gains and loses revs faster than a normal one. When engaging the clutch to shift into first you are actually losing too many revs and it is not spinning the first gear synchro up enough. As counter intuitive as it sounds try bring the revs up just a bit more before shifting into first from neutral. It will be a fine line which can be a bit tricky to master with a lightweight flywheel but it should help.
