It’s simple, put your car back to stock, and quit while your ahead, Bottom line, it seems that the tune produced too much power and that’s the issue. A 2nd dyno shouldn’t of even been attempted with a burning clutch. As far as your clutch goes , if it is new as you stated, you didn’t break it in properly, or you spun the heck out of it and glazed the clutch and flywheel, either way, I’m surprised the 2nd Dyno showed any gain with the clutch slipping, also I looked at F1Tuning’s website and the 30% gain is on turbo cars, not normally aspirated. Yeah dave, the chip gave you so much power it was slipping the clutch , you are prolly making 45% more hp and 55% more tq and thats why its slipping all the shit to hell ! > [@FS: 1994 GRAND CHEROKEE LAERDO SOLD](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/fs-1994-grand-cherokee-laerdo-sold/36597/15): > > I dont have a care to read this, but i find it funny how 3 or maybe 2 people made shift accounts just to talk about this, and will probably never use them again, use a telephone! :facepalm > > Edit: 2hp increase does suck man! no one else can listen when its on the phone, posting on the forum is for everyone to see that sucks you sold the car already because i really wanted to see what the f1 tuning owner was going to do about the tune and what numbers they were going to come up with… now we are kind of left in the dark… oh well.

I’m a little confused, no one would sell a car because a tune didn’t produce enough HP. Also why would anyone spend $600 for tune and Dyno if they were going to sell the car. Now he can return the car to stock ,get back his $449 and still sell it. But instead he wants just sell it. This is all very, very strange. I have suspected from the start that there is issues with the Car I’m willing to drive from Staten Island tomorrow @ 6 AM to Autohaus “3 1/2 hour” of driving each way. If the owner won’t give me a chance to figure out what is wrong, and report to the forum, It only proves to me that the car was the problem, But, I’m still going to tune auto Haus’s “540 auto” and when they dyno it the results will be posted on the forum. One point I would like to talk about, why do a few forum members make negative comments and hasty decisions , before knowing all the facts. Just because someone makes a comment ,it doesn’t make it fact. Once the Autohaus 540 is Dynoed the truth will come out. ---

Never saw the ferrari but it sounds like a cob job Another thing, there are a few forum members that are talking crap about our Twin turbo Ferrari. Here are some facts and pics. 1. ``` 1989 Ferrari 348 GTO Factory concept car. Value $250k ``` 2. ``` Twin turbo 700 hp on race fuel 18-20 psi ``` 3. ``` 520 hp to the wheels on pump gas at 10psi ``` 4. ``` One of a kind ``` 5. ``` Weights 2900 lbs ``` 6. ``` Motec M8 stand alone management system ``` 7. ``` Is it fast, very and willing to prove it. To the few members that are talking crap, ``` What happened to someone admiring something , rather than bringing jealousy into the picture. We have worked hard in our lives to be able to purchase a car of this stature and quality. We not going to sit idle by ,and let the likes of the few members talk crap . Look at the pics and decide for yourselves, next year we will be again at the large shows, And yes the Twin turbo Ferrari Supercar will be there also. ![file:///C:/Users/Vaio/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.png](file:///C:/Users/Vaio/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.png) ---
