Yes. Going to wrap the header and part of the cat. And part of the filter..
I may go back to stage 1. Stage 1.5 has done nothing for me.

There have been guys that ran the stock clutch for their tuning. Don't expect it to last that long though.

Oh I don't expect it to .the one in my supercharged one is feeling a little weak as well ...so after tuning the turbo one I'll have to plan new clutches for both not sure which clutches are good both daily driving and holding the power

Unless you are going for serious power, I've had really good luck with my Z1 full face and lightweight flywheel. Heard good things about Southbend too.

If mine goes out I'm replacing it with Clutchmasters.

I'm running 510/440 at the moment but my previous tune (which had a lot more miles on the clutch than the current one) was 505/470. So it held 470wtq for awhile.

jwick · 08-04-2017, 08:24 PM

Of course there's a lot of driver habits in there. I'm not hard on clutches. I've probably driven 350-400k miles (only three cars) on manual transmissions and have never burnt out a clutch.

Jinxx · 08-04-2017, 11:07 PM

I'm at 522 whp with 395 TQ...with the supercharger on stock clutch ...but I think it's showing it's signs of getting weak
