new clutch and dyno tune? Guys I have a question. I plan on getting all my mods installed at the same time. H/C, clutch and all supporting mods. Will dyno tuning my car ruin my new clutch setup? Its a monster stage 2 or should I bite the bullet and get it installed first and break it in then go back for dyno tune?

I had this same issue when purchasing my car. I waited until the new clutch had a few miles on it before hitting the dyno. Some may say otherwise, but that's just my opinion

Here's option 2. Take the car in and have all of your mods installed including the clutch. Have them start on the tune to get your idle and drive-ability decent, break in clutch with easy driving while enjoying the rumble from newly installed cam, bring car back for WOT tuning.

4th gear WOT hit at 3k rpm with a "built" motor is not really what you want to do with a zero milage clutch package. You really want a 500 mile break in period....or something more than "0" miles.
option 2 sounds prudent. even a mail order tune for a "typical" H/c build will get you buy until full dyno abuse takes place.
