Default help with spec clutch

finally got my spec stage 2 installed, well it is chattering pretty good out of first gear. i thought that the stage 2 didnt have much chatter? will it go away after i break it in, it only has 60 miles on it? also the jerk didnt install the supplied shim , it feels like it is dissengaging right now, will i have a problem in the future? any help is appreciated, thanks in advance

I just had a Spec Stage 2 installed as well. About 65 miles on it now. It has almost no chatter at all. Engages about an inch off the floor.

I have the Stage 3 with the x-pad and it had almost zero chatter right after the install.
