Thank you, It's a compound set up similar to a hellion cobra or gt500, so no there is no bypass valve or blower disengagement

Why not just run the bypass valve in the system. You could use it for safety protocols of some kind. At least it would help with surge and turbo lag. Or just pull the blade off and stick it behind the cowling if you can not get around it in the code. Or use a non supercharged ecu to tune with. I know it is MAF but you would not have to get rid of the clutch and bypass in the tune.

Yes, this is the key for several different paths.

I'm using 570k Ohm of resistance in that connector for the clutch.

They literally got it on the dyno at 5pm today on a base tune/start up file. The car was running afr's in the 9's but showed some good numbers. Don't fret, we will post info later in the week after its properly tuned.

why? those turbos are sized perfectly. they will hold boost all the way to redline. these turbos are good to make 1000+ rwhp.
