I have a 2019 Si. I have 20,000 miles on it now. Stock clutch. I have stock size Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires. Perrin rear mount insert. K&N Typhoon intake. Ktuner V2 with TSP Stage 1 tune.

I drive my car hard everyday in tune 2. I have ZERO clutch slippage on daily hard driving.
The only time I have clutch slippage is when I may have been racing around town really hard and I get on the highway in sport mode and tune 3 and WOT in 5th and 6th gear from lower RPM then I will overpower the clutch as it engages but it will slowly engage.

I have 112000kms(70k miles) total (87000kms 54k tuned miles) on my clutch, TSP Stage 1 first and now Phearable. Zero slip issues (actually my clutch is grabby). BBG set up for 4th through 6th (just in case me right foot falls asleep).
So you set up BBG with the Phearable tune too? Makes sense, though I got the impression from Phearable's posts elsewhere that they consider themselves to be a more clutch-friendly tune, rendering BBG unnecessary.

WOT in 5th and 6th from lower rpm will do more than just roasting the clutch ? Shoving way too much torque in that engine at lower rpm will heavily stress the engine internals

2019 Civic Si with 20,000 miles on it.

TSP Stage 1 K-Tuner
Mishimoto intercooler + piping kit
K&N Typhoon SRI
Perrin Motor mount inserts.

I am starting to get mild clutch slippage WOT in 4th gear in map 3. I have been shifting later than usual going from 3rd to 4th to alleviate that. Car has seen 2 track days so far and 10-15 canyon runs. Will probably go CTR retrofit or ACT shortly., other maps show no sign of slippage.

I have no plans to go flex fuel anytime soon.

Do you like the Perrin inserts?? Do they make a difference?
