Have you driving the car on a base map, you gotta make sure that clutch doesnt slip on the dyno

 

[Patchezz]

yea im driving it now to work out the kinks on the base tune. everything works fine on it so far, and the clutch feels great. should be good for the dyno but im gonna drive it around more to break in the motor and make sure nothing pops up while its getting tuned.... dont want the oil pan to blow off on the dyno (not like its going to happen, just making sure)
