Default Diablo Predator Tuner Install!!

I ran it in the extreme mode for a day and at about 75mph i would put it to the floor and what feel the clutch slipping. I turned it down to the performance tune and it is much better, still real good throttle response and added power. With out a doubt there is still a fair amount of smoke in most gears. As far as gauges what do you reccomend getting? Do you think that my stock clutch will be ok in the performance tune?? What about a clutch upgrade and what are other modifications i can do help my truck out. I know that i need a intake system and i have the muffler cut out of my exhaust know which is 4inch with a 5 inch tip. In all honesty thwe dodge had great power before the tuner but the tuner has mad a night and day differrence. I just want to keep adding on. Any info or suggestions of what i should do next would be great!!
Thanks

I using a southbend con ofe clutch in mine and it will hold the diablosport on the extreme rkl tune(180hp) if your nice to the clutch and don't get it too hot while slipping it trying to the turbo to spool at the drag strip doing third gear 4x4 launches. With highway roll ons like you described it holds no problem. What year is your truck? Welcome to the site!

I slipped my clutch with the performance tune if I stomped on it at 50 or more
