My spec 3+ had terrible chatter for the first 200 miles or so. After the break-in period it has since gone away and been working great so far after 1500 miles. I'm not sure on the Tex maybe someone else can chime in.

I don't think mine has ever chatter, but its been a while since I have driven the car. I like the tex. I would get the twin tex if I was you IMO.

My Spec 3 chatters a little bit when you launch it a certain way. Not too bad though, but it lets me know I got something beefy in there

Why does it even matter why I'm asking. Maybe I'm asking for a friend. Maybe I'm just curious to be curious.

The real reason is I'm switching to M6.

Expect some chatter with the SPEC 3 during break in. To minimalize this, we suggest doing the billet steel flywheel at the same time, that way they're balanced and shipped together. Since the SPEC stuff is much cheaper than the Textralia stuff, most are happy to deal with a bit more chatter.

All Textralia clutches ship with the clutch kit and flywheel together. The Z-Grip OZ700 is going to chatter a bit as well. The X-Grip OZ700 is designed to be more mannerful for street driving.

How much is your Spec 3 with the billet steel flywheel? Can you pm me a price cuz the sight doesn't show it with the flywheel.

The flywheels are further down on the same page. Just add the clutch kit to your cart and then add the flywheel to your cart. By doing so, it'll also bump you over the $500 mark, which will give you free shipping as well.
