well my clutch lasted about 1500-2000 miles on the exteme but i dont know how old this clutch is because i bought the truck used i ordered my new valair FE clutch and will be intalling this weekend btw ebay has great deals

 

WOW, extreme stacker with my EZ on 3 wouldnt even slip the stocker... under normal full throttle acceleration, but I had to be a wise guy and make it slip.....

 

I had an identical experiance last week.

First time out i rolled into the throttle in 3rd gear and at about 2k rpms it slipped like a 300k mile burned up clutch..my truck has 19k miles on it

Only thing is i used to have a smarty and i never ran it over 90 horse, and the clutch NEVER slipped once....I even did alot of towing on the 60 and never had a slip.

I think something is up with the diablo tuner because the so called 60 horse tow tune feels like at least 100 or more


All i wanted was a mild hp increase, i think the programming must be backwards on this thing. As i have time im going to try each program and see if one of them is the tow tune. I hate to try and deal with diablo's service yet.

 

My clutch is toast at 32000 it slipped with the SC in tow mode dont feel like the Lone Ranger.

 

Ya i had a guy on here before told me i was crazy, when i said the stock clutch in front of the nv5600 would hold a LOT more than the g56. Read these guys posts with the early NVs, and my self have put big power to the stocker for sometimes years. The G56s are closer to the edge from the factory for sure. I have another friend with a 07 his sliped with the ez, thats only 65hp over factory. I ran 150hp over stock for 3 years.

 

i dont understand why my clutch would hold up to the smarty or 30 and 60 towing up to 24k, and 90 unloaded and never show a sign of slipping...then 15k miles later with 19k on the clock i put the supposed 60 horse diablo tow tune and the thing slips the clutch in 3rd gear half throttle?

 

If it was working so good for you why did you switch tuners, to hear from people on this site the smarty is the best thing since sliced bread? Just curious.

 

we changed one out in a 07 G56 with 983 miles on it, the clutch was already burn't up when we got it out, what junk that set up is.

 

the smarty smoked way to much even in the lowest setting, it was even worse towing. I hated the smarty, it was almost impossible to drive easy without billowing smoke.

i tried the 60 horse puck tune and it feels like a 60 horse tune... no slipping clutch. there must be something programmed wrong for the 60 horse regular tune for the 7131 tuner

 

did you try the performance/economy setting,im not sure aboutthe 7131[i have a 7130}but the perf tune doesnt seem to have the low end grunt that the tow tune does,that may be easier on the clutch,im running it now as we get into winter season so the tires dont spin as easy in the snow.

 

im going to try that next, as well as the rest of the settings.
its hard for me to take the time to wait to load the programs because im constantly on the move

 

got a smarty jr and a volair clutch....we shall see if it holds

 

My NV5600 slipped with just a Quad std. It was a used truck, but the mileage was low. I think there are just a lot of differences from one truck to the next.
