how long ago was the clutch replaced? What type of clutch is it?

These cars can be dyno tuned, but not without the aid of an Edit or Chip.

Is the car still under warrany?
take it back to the car yard and tell them the clutch has been playing up and get them to fix it.
But flywheel machine is the only thing I can put it down to.
