Remember that tuning the CVT does not change your gear ratios. Changing weights controls the rate of up shift and the torque spring controls downshift rate.

Clutch arm springs will change the engagement RPM of the clutch. If you like the feel of dumping a manual clutch at high RPM's, stiffer springs will give you this at the expense of clutch life. Also remember that stiffer springs will disengage the clutch sooner if the engine drops bellow engagement threshold. I prefer to use OEM springs in the arms to get the clutch to engage hold solid through the majority of engine RPM.
