Default Spec stage 3 clutch is squealing still!!! Help!!!!

Without boring details, we put my spec st 3 ceramic clutch back in to exact torque specs and since then ( a few thousand miles ago) it squeals every time it's engaged (during clutch take up)- does it on upshifts and downshifts. Any ideas? I was wondering if it could be the bushing that you slide the trans input shaft in to. Just a swag.

Aggressive clutch materials will do this especially during break in. I've heard that the ceramic is notorious for it. Try being aggressive with the clutch engagement several times to see if you can get any possible glazing stripped off.

I put a new Zo6 slave in it the first time. Isn't the throw out part of it?

I was seriously thinking that was what I was hearing but haven't heard anyone talk about it.
