Getting ready to upgrade my blower from pulled Eaton to a VMP TVS. Should put me around the 600RWHP / 550 RWTQ. I know that I need to upgrade my clutch but my question is how are you all handling it as far as tuning it? I want to have it all done at once so I don't have to make two appointments / trips so are you dyno testing with your old clutch & then putting in a new one or putting in the new clutch & dyno it without a break in period? My old clutch is not slipping at all & has 42,000 miles on it

If it's still holding it should be just fine for the dyno tune.

Just use your stock clutch then switch out. Just went through the same thing. I ran the same set up.
Ported eaton running 506/542 then switched to a 2.3 tvs which made 632/556.
I switched blowers mid season and had the car dyno tuned. My car / stock clutch had 31k miles. On the dyno for the very first pull my tuner said it slipped a little. After that he said once it heated up and had a few runs it held the power just fine.

That being said you should have no problem with your stock clutch but know an upgrade is going to be in your future.
I ran 1k miles on my stock clutch Tvs set up on the street until I switched.
