You are seeing software / stock rom tune limitations.

Some actual data I can share is we had a 2008 MR (BBX equipped) at 390whp/340wtq running for a bit, owner upgrade to SSP discs for future proofing and the stock discs looked brand new still when they came out.

Also have a FPgreen equipped with meth injection @ 26psi with no clutch slipping after tuning it out.

Have a bunch of other MR's running around with about the same power/trq with no issues of slipping.

However most MR's do hit the stock tune limit with mild mods and the clutches will slip, until you tune it out.

The stock discs need to get more credit then they currently do...

Are you saying we have to tune the SST otherwise its limit would be still 320ish trq? Did u mean flashing SST software (how?) or upgrade/change the clutch discs? What is BBX and SSP anyway... Sorry, i'm new here

Thanks!

If it was my car, I would opt for the GSR. The MR is nice, but after seeing what our GSR can do with minor bolt ons, i'm sold!

Don't be so quick to discount the MR. Properly tuned they can make the same power mod for mod. So far the BBX record holders on our dyno on 91 octane are all MR's. The MR also has the advantage in acceleration in that they do not drop boost between shifts whatsover.



Of course once you get to higher level builds the trans needs a bit more work, but for 80% of owners and mod levels they work just fine.
