Question Spec 2+3 hybred clutch

Spec 2+3 hybred clutch break-in. How did you break- in your clutch. My new clutch setup shakes the car taking off, called tec support and they said it was normal until about 500 miles.

My SPEC III chatters unless I give it a good amount of gas on take off. It can get annoying.

I went with a new ALM Flywheel and had the whole set-up balanced.

believe or not my spec V is still not chattering, I have been trying to be easy on it for the first few hundred miles though, only got on it a couple times and nothing that would cause to much strain on the drivetrain.
