Default SAE +440rwhp on slipping clutch

Finally got to the dyno today and had it dyno tuned. Slowhawk did an awesome job as usual, but we just couldn't get the power down. Clutch was slipping unfortunately. Don tried to roll it past the torque peak, but it just didn't hold. Now I'm looking at a SPEC clutch for the replacement.

It was kinda funny seeing smoke poor out from under the car during the dyno pull He'll be past 450hp easilly enough when the new clutch is in

It was something, burning clutch and all the smoke. We were trying just about everything to get one solid run and it all was appreciated. Mike Dez was pretty funny just going about his business through it all. My expectations were exceeded even with a slipping clutch. I'm greatful anyway, thanks Don.
