The hondata base map for w1 and I think the ktuner as well won't push the w1 past 24 psi, the w1 will hold 29 to redline and with a custom tune and using the full potential of the turbo you will definitely blow that clutch apart when taking the car past 3k rpm

It pushes only when on E85, which I have seen. On Hondata I dont know. but I m so close to just buy Hondata because more available tuners locally.

Man, those are some sweet additions. I gotta say, your 1st set of aftermarket rims looked 100x better, though!

Very true, I liked my firtst set, but these have grown on me as well.

UPDATE: I have installed the FX400 clutch (6puck) what a major difference.

Damn 400! How stiff is the clutch pedal now?

KTuner still only pushes the 24psi on e85 unless they changed it, which I doubt. Push that 29 to redline with a custom tune and really be blown away

was stiff at the beginning. but when I called clutchmasters the pressure plate is the same across the board with all the clutches they sell so If you have the 100 or 400 it will feel the same.

Hmmmm., sounds interesting. I know DRob created the tune for Vincent, But I have literally seen 29 on the screen, its occasional but nonetheless I see 28 all the time.

I woundnt modify any lease, stay stock meng.


I dont know the power I am making, but if I were to guess jut based on numbers and what other friends are making. I think I am around 310-315WHP and 320TQ. But I wont dyno until I have the clutch. which should be next week.


A nice Penny. PM me and I can share to give you an idea.


Thank you sir!

Your stock clutch would have already well burned out if at 320ft/lbs.
You are basically at somewhere 260-270ft/lbs and still slipping the clutch because torque does come on rather low (especially on Base Maps of any sort).
Since you are acquiring a clutch and getting on a dyno - use that time to get things "Custom Tuned".

Wheel Horse Power is determined on Mustang Dynos / All others measure Crank Horsepower.

Thankfully I already installed the clutch. I was slipping after I installed the flex fuel kit. Now is just getting it dyno/ tune

Don’t be jealous, I would say encouraged of the possibilities. I think from here is just tweaking and buying some other parts, such as a radiator and 27won RMM, which I’m dying to get a hold of. Right now money is tight so I must wait.

Father’s Day is around the corner maybe I’ll get a gift, lol.
